Product Description

Diana Cambridge, Writing Magazine
`Incredibly helpful.'


Product Description
Whether it's a guide you've produced with your local history society, a collection of poems you want to share with friends, or your epic novel that should surely earn you a fortune, this book will provide you with the practical advice and technical information you need to turn your manuscript into a finished book. It also provides valuable business guidance to ensure you have a clear understanding of your goals. For example: What do you want to achieve from publishing your own book? How much money can you afford to invest? If you intend to sell the book - and not everyone does - who do you think will buy it? Once you have made an informed decision to publish your own book, you'll be guided through the process step-by step: book industry registration, classifications and copyright; pricing and margins; preparing your manuscript for print; format and design options; finding a printer and deciding the print run; marketing and advertising your book; and sales and distribution advice.

5.0 out of 5 stars M Lewis UK, 3 Oct 2008
By M. Lewis (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Most of the other How To Self Publish books, whilst informative seem to have mainly been written for a US market. This one however is written specifically for a UK market and basically tells you everything you need to know in regards to self-publishing a book in the UK. Very clear and easy to read with lots of addresses and links specific to over here. It's definitely the starting point if you are self-publishing in the UK.

4.0 out of 5 stars Concise, to the point, great starting point, 21 Dec 2008
Don't know how to get an ISBN for your book? Don't know what size your book should be? Unsure of the costs involved in book publishing? Then this book is for you.

It is great for people with no previous knowledge of book publishing in the UK. It is concise, simple and clear - if you have already published or self-published a book you would probably know most of what ms. Crosbie imparts, but for novices like me it is a great primer for everything that you need to take into account.

It probably will not be of much use to writers who have already self-published, or if you are looking for in-depth guidance on any particular aspect of book publishing or marketing in the UK, but it will give you a very good baseline.

This book has certainly made my journey into self-publishing in the UK a lot easier.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource, 28 Oct 2008
A great book, can't be faulted except that it may be a couple of years old. Has everything you need to know about self-publishing in an easy-to-read format. Is thorough, easy-to-follow and invaluable considering many self-publishing books emanate from the States so contain few relevant contact details for UK readers. I refer to it again.. and again.. and again. Thanks Anna!
Highly recommended.
