Irene Watson and Victor R. Volkman spoke with entrepreneur, publishing, and marketing guru Dan Poynter about a wide variety of related topics. Poynters Self-Publishing Manual: How to Write, Print and Sell Your Own Book has had more than 15 editions and is the most often referenced book on the subject by far. Dan has produced more than 76 books and revisions so far, of which some have been translated into Spanish, Japanese, Russian, British-English and German. Heres just a few of the things we talked about:

• eBooks and the future of publishing
• Importance of a good book title
• Pre-pub reviews do they still matter?
• Marketing on a budget
• Self-publishing without the Vanity tax
• Proofing and editing
• Basics of good book cover design
