Have you ever thought about writing a Book?

Maybe it's just your life story, or a book of poems or any one of a hundred ideas. With the Internet, there are no excuses. I have a few story ideas, and someday I am going to finish one of them........

Here are some publishing statistics that are really interesting: About 80% of the 1.2 million books published in 2004 sold less than 99 copies and only 2% sold 5,000 or more copies. The average book sells 500 copies.

According to a recent article there are three essentials to success as a self-publisher 1) secure a professional editor 2) secure a talented cover and page designer 3) have a well-tuned business and marketing plan.
