Let me introduce you to Mr. Simon Royle, author of the Tag.
http://www.simon-royle.com/
He paid out of his own pocket for professional editor, typesetter, cover designer, copy editor and a few other services and in about 10 days he is starting to sell his book from his site.
He will also sell ebooks via Amazon and a few other places.

Oh ... and he is member of this forum ;-)

One more thing.
He does not call himself "author, inc.", but I&I press. Much better name, IMHO.
