Stinkers! America's Worst Self-Published Books

Book excerpt: Although it has become relatively easy to self-publish, it's also easy to make serious mistakes in writing, design and marketing that can seriously limit the acceptability and sales of a self-published book. It's sad--and funny--that some of the worst self-published books, and the majority of the books discussed in this book, are books that try to provide advice to other authors. This book will help you avoid the worst mistakes of others, so you can publish a book that you can be justifiably proud of, and perhaps enlighten, entertain and inform others--and maybe you'll even make some money.
