The Indie world is a jungle and there are few well-beaten paths--and unlike you'd expect, even some of those well-beaten paths end in spike pits, too. If you want to navigate it safely, you might find a guide... like this book.
This is a practical book with step-by-step advice to guide any writer through becoming an Indie author. It also covers some of the "why" aspects and peeks beneath the scenes showing failures, successes, inside information, and encouragement for the ultimate do-it-yourselfer.
