With the State of the economy as it currently is, would you consider self publishing?
What are the pros and cons into self publishing. It seems to me that more and more people are considering this route. Have you considered it or are you doing it or have you done it ?
I think if you can self publish, more power to you. But more than anything you must be spot on with your editing and check spellings etc. So many self-pubs are littered with errors.
With traditional publishing someone is checking it besides you, but it is so easy to miss things yourself. Then you just look stupid and it would not encourage anyone (publishers included) to read anything else you have.
Maybe paying a professional editor beforehand is the secret.
Just my two pence! :)
Sorry Jonathan I forgot to ask... Have you any tips for printers and so on.
Regards
Thanks all, every bit of info helps
