How I Published my Book on Go
- sunnybythesea 13y agoThanks for sharing your experience! I'm wondering how does the editorial process work with this approach? How does the publisher ensure quality?
- cdoxsey 13y agoCreate Space has automated systems that check technical things (like images being in the right format). I don't think there's much of any review of content. It only took a few hours to get approved once I submitted it.
- carbon8 13y agoFWIW, having read through this book, I highly recommend it for anyone interested in learning Go. It provides a good, clear introduction to the language and is very easy to digest.
- epoxyhockey 13y agoDid you consider self-publishing via an affiliate marketing service like ClickBank? I consider a book on Golang to be niche enough to warrant pricing in the area of $50-$100, but that may just be me. Thanks for sharing your experience! EDIT: One afterthought.. perhaps you could borrow the model that http://ruby.railstutorial.org/ http://ruby.railstutorial.org/ uses. The HTML online version of the book is free, but the PDF download is $26. Since you already have http://www.golang-book.com/ http://www.golang-book.com/ that enjoys reasonably steady traffic, why not give it a shot?
- dougbarrett 13y agoI'm glad I saw this, I have been looking for a book on Go to use as a resource. I've jumped right in with success, but I feel like I'm missing some of the main fundamentals that could expand my knowledge further. Just bought the Kindle version :)
