Product Description:
Bestselling eBook writer and publisher, Timothy Sean Sykes shares his secrets for success in these new, wide open fields! After years of publishing with a major east-coast publisher, Sykes decided to strike out on his own. "Why," he thought, "should I continue giving away 95% of my books income to someone who didnt write it (and doesnt do a very good job of marketing it)? I can do better!"
And he did!
Within a year of his decision, hed not only devised a plan, started his own self-publishing business, and written several new books, hed also sold nearly 1,500 eBooks and Print-On-Demand books. Whats more? He didnt have to share the profits with anyone!
In Self-Publishing eBooks & PODs: One Step at a Time, Sykes walks you through how he did it, and what youll need to do it, too. He details what it cost, and what corners you can (and cant) cut. And he even gets you started toward marketing your efforts.
This Second Edition contains completely updated instructions for Adobe Reader 7 and Adobe Acrobat Pro 7, as well as updated requirements for retailers, printers, and more!

I'd like to read this book ... on my Kindle ... but the fact that a book about publishing ebooks isn't available for the Kindle makes me wonder if this book is really worth the read. Sadly, until its available on Kindle I'm unable to rate above 1 star. NOTE: I have not read this book.

This book is a walk through of the technical aspects of self publishing including how to use the software, what formats to publish in and so on.
Those looking for advice on marketing the finished product should look elsewhere.

While there is good information in this book, it failed to hold my interest. It read more like a technical manual than a how-to. In addition, there was a lot more in it about publishing a downloadable ebook than about Print-On-Demand (which happens to be what I was looking for). If you want a step-by-step about how to put a downloadable PDF book together, this would help.

If your time is worth at least minimum wage, this book is worth $50. It's a steal at $15.
