I have chronicled (that sounds like a big word for this) my experiences with self-publishing for the first time and things I've done so far to get the word out. Since I'm doing a "soft launch" with a short story, I'm interested to see how it will turn out. This may be an interesting read for anyone thinking of self-publishing or has experienced it themselves and can relate to what I feel about it.
