HB: On the whole, our advice to those wanting to self-publish is (i) by all means do it, if you want to print up some books for friends and family, otherwise (ii) just burn your money - it's more fun and you can warm your toes.
I don't think that advice is about to change, but this article offers a coolly rational view of the whole process, albeit omitting the punchline - whether the author's book actually sold. We're going to be offering a self-publishing workshop next year, with Jeremy Thompson of Matador offering his take on the process. It'll be extremely interesting to see what comes of that.
Meantime, in case I don't post again before Xmas, then a happy Christmas to one and all. This article of mine (printed last year) explains how the British invented Christmas. A bit of a stretch, maybe, but what the hell. Let's credit Charles Dickens, raise our glasses, and Toast Napoleon. Cheers! Prost! and sto lat!
