Self-publishing

Seems like a sticky thread to answer self-publishing questions and provide resources might be helpful. See the "5 mistakes killing self-published authors" thread, where Phil_the_Drill linked to one blog post and I just linked to another. There's some good advice which people might want that's going to vanish down that place where threads go otherwise.

 

I'm thinking a sort of Resources area/FAQs specifically for indie authors. Beyond that, I don't know: I'm not self-published, so I don't know all the issues, and it's not something I need. But I see a lot of questions from indie authors that seem like they would be repeated over time, and it might be useful for people to have a set of links or posts which address things that get said over and over. For example, the link below I imagine might still be useful to people with self-publishing questions 6 months from now, but they're unlikely to find it. I'm a big fan of keeping important information organized and findeable instead of repeating it every time the question gets asked again. Maybe this gets covered adequately already, but I thought I'd suggest it. Thanks.
