    Hi,
    I enjoyed your informatve website.

    I am on my way to completing the editng of my novel. The next step will be self-publishing but I don’t know anything about self-publishing or where to start who to go to that will give me the best service and price etc.

    Can you lead me in the right direction.

    Thank you

    Whitney

    Hello Whitney:

    Pretty much all my thoughts on self-publishing (a graphic novel, in my case) are contained in a ten-part series of blog entries I wrote on the subject, the first part of which can be found here:
    http://larsmartinson.com/how-i-self-published-a-graphic-novel-18/

    Other than that, the best place to start your research is definitely Dan Poynter’s “Self-Publishing Manual”, which is the first amazon.com link at the top of this page.

    Good luck to you!
    Lars
