8. How To Self-Publish 1

These are exciting times for self-publishers which has really come in from the cold.

• People have always self-published, Beatrix Potter and the Bronte sisters did versions of it
• In the digital world you can create demand and fulfill it entirely online. 
• Print on demand (POD) explained.
• Ebooks, still dominated by Amazon and Kindle, are devoured by readers, especially romance and crime genres.
• Now is the time for self publishing to have its moment. The advantages for readers as well as author.
• The democratisation of the publishing process. Publishers and bookshops are a closed world to the non-traditionally published. They are the gatekeepers, but self publishing changes all that.
• Example: Lisa Genova’s Still Alice was originally self published.
