Self-Publishing

bunch of cdsThe advent of digital printing made it possible for writers to become publishers, making their own work available to the public without the need of an established publisher to back them up. And a new branch of the book industry was born: the self-publishing, print-on-demand and all its variations.

What is Publishing?

From Wikipedia, publishing is the activity of putting information into the public arena. Therefore, the publisher is the person responsible for making the information available to the public. In the book industry, the publisher is the one who will ultimately make the book available to the public, by overseeing and controlling the whole process of book production, from its conception to its sales.

So what a publisher really does?
