"Hi Ksenia, I wish you would write about that [self-publishing] process. The do's and don'ts. The good or bad ways. Steps to go through. Soon I’ll be going into this and will be suffering from overload I am sure, until I can figure it all out. As I have been following you for over a year now, I just find that you are so knowledgeable in this realm, and always helpful to others. Thank you so much. Wayne."

Hi Wayne, excellent questions, and a post long overdue. I've been collecting information about this over the years, and you can look at the older posts I'll link below, but it's a good idea to summarize it all quickly in one post, to give you a kind of a starting point and not feel so overwhelmed by the whole process. Here we go then.
