I sort of took the existence of a website to sell from as a given. Though I must admit to having some trouble coming up with ideas for an interesting website when I finally pull the finger out and publish my first book ...
Yes, I've decided to self publish without trying any more traditional publishing avenues. The more I've read about it the less I think I am going to like any deal they would be likely to offer me on my first book anyway. So now I am trying to line up all the things I need to do to publish properly and as professionally as I can, and this thread was just exploring one of the things that occurred to me. My efforts have been a bit half-hearted at this stage because it makes me nervous. What's the phrase? ... Getting my ducks in a row. But I really like ducks so I'm giving them a chance to fly off.
