The Self Published Carnival #2
Almost Famous Edition Last month I reviewed a new resource for authors called FiledBy.com. (FiledBy.com Review) Sometime during the couple of days that followed, I showed up for a heartbeat on the “Most Viewed Authors” list at #2 – right under marketing guru Seth Godin.

Filedby.com – A New Marketing Tool For Authors
I’m always looking for new ways to get my name out there and get folks to read my fiction. Sometimes I don’t have to look too hard though – the information just finds it’s way to me. A representative of a new website named FiledBy.com emailed me and gave me a quick rundown of their [...]

The Self-Published Carnival
Okay, a friend of mine (Benjamin Rogers) sent me an email with a good idea. It appears that he will not be following through with his idea for the time being, but I just can’t seem to let my version of the idea go. That idea rattled around and mutated itself until it became a [...]

Why did I self publish?
A StoryHack reader writes: What made you decide to self-publish instead of going the normal route? Can you really make money that way? That’s a very good question. I did submit to one publisher, Permuted Press, during their open submission time. They are small and they only publish apocalyptic fiction. That was months and months [...]
Choosing a “free” POD publisher: Lulu vs Createspace
A while ago I wrote about Choosing a Cheap Self Publishing Solution. Some things have changed, and now I’d like to do a more in-depth review of what I think are currently your best options. If you’re just trying to publish your book without a lot of hassle or expense, you pretty much have two [...]
The Free Self Publishing Toolbox
Last Christmas, I worked up files to self-publish a novel my father had written while he was in college. I ended up making a softcover to test the concept and a hardcover to make it nice and pretty. I used Lulu.com as the POD publisher, and I used several free tools to design the text [...]
Zombies, Vampires, & Texan Independent Authors

For those of you who are writers, she’s got some encouraging things to say to you, too. Here’s the interview: Thanks again for agreeing to [...]
