Self-Publishing Your Own Book is the New Business Card
- dalke 15y agoI so totally don't believe that. The author says he published five books through traditional publishers and had a "weekly column in The Financial Times", so it's basically impossible to say if self-publishing is good for you if you don't already have that background. Or, consider the proffered scenario: 'Then when you meet someone and they ask for your business card, how cool will it be when you can say, "here, take my book instead."' Not cool at all. My uncle was like that. He wrote a book and tried to get anyone else to read it. I couldn't get past the first few pages. It's like going around to everyone saying "read my blog - I'm so insightful!"
