The benefits attributed to self publishing are expected to greatly increase the number of authors continuing to take on the responsibility of publishing, marketing and selling their own works.

An Introduction to Self Publishing

Self publishing means different things to different people. In its most basic definition, self publishing means that an author has complete control over the book they wrote and they are responsible for fulfilling all of the duties that a traditional publisher would. This means that aside from the actual writing of the book, the author is also responsible for running a small business with the goal of producing, marketing and selling their book.
