Writing was never a part of Peggy's life plan, and came to it in small steps—a business woman first, a writer second. After a short career in banking, Peggy went back to college for a computer science degree and opened a computer and network design company.

She left the computer business after thirteen years and became a newspaper columnist and freelance writer.

Peggy says, "It seemed to me that the two consistent things in the many iterations of my career were computers and writing. When I discovered print-on-demand technology and

realized the huge potential for authors, I knew what I had to do: teach other writers how to take control of their careers, their content and their profit margins by self-publishing. I am on a mission."

Self-Publishing for Virgins is a comprehensive

how-to book that teaches writers how to self-publish with profit! This book takes you from conception to publication and promotion of your self-published book using cutting edge, print-on-demand technology, social media and non-traditional

book promotion.

Peggy DeKay is the Director of Women Who Write and the former editor of Writer’s Wire, an ezine for writers. She teaches self-publishing workshops at the University

of Louisville, Indiana University, Carnegie Center and at regional libraries, book festivals and writers conferences.
