If You've Got The Will YOU Can Self-Publish
And if you are willing to do the marketing then ...
A first time author sold 800 copies in four months - just by utilising some free marketing opportunities in her local area. The author's only cost was for the printing (~$5.00/book). By starting with a small quantity (50 - cost of $250) and using the profit along with the original $250 (now recouped) she could double the print run and.. well you can do the math..
Another first timer marketed by personally going in to bookshops in towns close to where he lived. He sold 500 in one month.
(not bad for a couple of senior citizens from the bush!)
Writing just for family and friends ? - There is no minimum quantity for a print run - which suits family memoirs, poetry and other books that you may like to write just for family and friends.
All work done in Australia - not overseas.
