And, yes, I think that POD has given authors the freedom and leeway they need. I'm all for it. But I also think we need "the next step" -- leverage to get indie books and small press books NOTICED by major media and by Joe and Josephine Public-At-Large...globally. And it's going to take more than a village. It's going to take an army. Signing up? Love the link, Marva. And, yes, I think that POD has given authors the freedom and leeway they need.

Wannabe Publishers! This is absolutely the way to go if you want to publish your own book. I'm "Texas Boy Publications" (are you impressed yet?). Anyway, what being a 'publisher' and getting your own ISBNs provides is flexibility. I don't need to wonder when iUniverse is going to post royalties (well, I do have to wait for one of my printers, Lulu, for a monthly sales report). If nobody stops me, I will publish again. Does that strike terror into your heart? Here's a site on suggestions of what to do with the 500 copies of your book that some of the vanities require you to purchase: http://www.offbeatearth.com/dont-like-reading-other-uses-for-books/ Hee hee!
