Mark's book surfaced about the rating of self-publishers; inluding, costs and other pros and cons.

That's too bad, because Poynter doesn't deserve them.

And while there are many books written for the small publisher or self-published author, Woll's work is much less of a cheerleading rah-rah, and much more of a how-to. It's loaded with formulas and charts and business math. He shares both horror and success stories. His advice is ...             Perfection [Eternally Three] (Siren Publishing Menage Amour)5 reviews Kris Cook Siren Publishing, Inc., 2010 4.5 Blue Ribbons from Romance Junkies!

There are a few better ones on the market that have been written more ...             Writing Your Journal Article in Twelve Weeks: A Guide to Academic Publishing Success7 reviews Wendy Laura Belcher Sage Publications, Inc, 2009 Great Teaching Tool Just wanted to chime in here. None of the reviews thus far have mentioned the fact that the author has organized this book in such a way that it could be used to teach a grad class on academic writing, or research methods. While it doesn't deal with "research methods" in any discernible way, it would provide a useful framework (covering topics like how to write a literature review) to teach a ...             Cowboy Cravings (Siren Publishing Menage Amour) Morgan Ashbury Siren Publishing, Inc., 2010 [Menage Amour: Erotic Cowboy Menage a Trois Romance, M/F/M] Annie Rutherford came west seeking a new life, never dreaming love would be part of the mix.
