For those interested in self-publishing, check out CreateSpace...saw it mentioned in C Hope Clark's newsletter, so how bad can they be? "With CreateSpace you can easily access tools, quality printing, booksellers, eBook distribution, and marketing strategies so that you can generate more opportunities than you imagined – all while building your following of readers."

I think even if you don't go with them, they seem to offer a lot of info and tools on the site...not necessarily a big fan of self-publishing myself, but a lot of authors are choosing that option...
