This perennial bestseller has been revised to include online delivery of books, print on demand, CD publishing, and email promotion. Twelve chapters provide guidance on everything from writing to publicity to distribution, with one chapter devoted to technology.
The bible on self-publishing. Highly recommended by virtually everyone in the industry -- even other authors of books on the subject (many of whom probably followed the advice in Poynter's previous 11 editions).

Fantastic Book For Future Authors!:
I have written over 30 books that have been self-published, and I wish I read this book a long time ago. This is a fantastic resource for anyone who is about to write a new book. There are a lot of great books out there for people who have already written and published their book, but if you are an aspiring author, this is a must-read for you! Buy this book, write your book, decide how to publish it, and then go out and sell some copies! Enjoy! Todd Hagopian

THE book to start with:
My copy is dog-eared, tabbed and highlighted. It is the best over-all, over-view of the self publishing process. You have to read it several times to 'get' all it has to offer. I highly recommend this book. Even if you don't self-publish, it helps to understand the process.

Review of Dan Poynter's Manual, edition 16:
This covers a very complex process thoroughly. There are many sharks out there; this book ditinguishes them from the trouts.
