Publishing

Obviously there have been many published writers circulating round the HUBB... Lois/Austin/Ed M/Dan W/Ted S etc

Anyway i aspire to finish and publish my first book in 2013

It's semi autobiographical, littered with poetry, bikes, women, travel etc...

So... I'm looking for hints/tips/ideas on how to get published?
Or do i format the whole thing for ipad/tablets and do it all myself Nick Sanders style?

Hi,

Publish your story online to give something back to the comunity. Online you can also use Google Adsense wich pays better then selling one of many million travel storys in a book...

How to Publish

Self-publish via lulu.com

Do your cover or get professionally done, upload, and you do the marketing via blog, forums etc, they print and post out, you get money.

I think lulu is based in the USA. In the Uk you could try pen press.co.uk. I'm looking to publish my book next year and am probably going with these guys. Norman Magowen use them for his book. - adventures in Yellow.
