OT: fellow e-book authors
 

Hi everyone,
I recently self published a baseball themed book through kindle direct. I enjoy writing as a side project, but I have been disappointed so far with exposure from Amazon. I think there are a few authors on this board who focus on sports material. Has anyone self published and how has the experience been?

I am amidst self-publishing via Amazon Kindle ebook and perfect bound copies by theBookPatch.com. As a first time author it is incredibly difficult to get exposure for projects. Though the Amazon Kindle First Time Authors Forum has been very helpful:

Thus far, what has worked far more efficiently is readings at libraries, museums, and historical societies. The local publicity; newspaper articles, and forum announcements have produced more ebook sales than any methodology offered by ADP.

Feel free to PM me to discuss the good/bad/ugly of self-publishing.
