While traditional publishing has seen a slow-down that nobody can deny, the market presents many opportunities for quality self-publishing success for the writer/publisher who is creative in marketing and promotion. When I coach self-publishing clients to help them come up with marketable books, I emphasize the need for a strong marketing plan. It's not enough to simply write a book and hope readers will come. If you do that, you will starve. Successful self-publishing is a process. It's not easy, as I'm sure you will attest, but it is doable -- if you know what you're doing or are working with someone who does. Great overview of publishing industry happenings.
