A New and Good Blog About Self Publishing

Joe Wikert does it again, this time by pointing to a new blog called Self Publishing Today. The author is Ray Robinson who is with Dog Ear Publishing, a company that offers a variety of self-publishing services.
The blog looks good. For example, on August 25, Robinson posted Self Publishing Hits – The Lace Reader, Brunonia Barry and Lorna Page. He tells the story of self-published fiction that went mainstream with a 2 million dollar advance. But he does more than just report that fact. If you read the whole entry you’ll find all sorts of marketing hints.
On August 19th, Robinson took a post of Wikert’s, and reworked it (with credit) into Ten Things Editors and Agents Hate – applied to Self Publishing. It provides valuable insights every author even considering self-publishing should memorize.
I’m subscribing to this blog and suspect you should too.
