Self-Publishing Books 101 : A Step-By-Step Guide to Publishing Your Book in Multiple Formats by Shelley Hitz and Heather Hart Self-Publishing Books 101 is a free Kindle eBook on Amazon.com right now.This book is very informative and helpful and I gave it five stars; although, I don't believe this book should be the first book read on self-publishing. The mere volume of information can be overwhelming for someone just beginning to think about self-publishing.

I also have numerous books in different stages of completion from only a few sentences to three-quarters completed. Research To get started, I downloaded a few books on self-publishing. I now have a total of 15 books on the subject. So far, I've read 3 books which I will discuss them h...
