I would recommend that you read the post found on this blog titled "The Pros and Cons of Publishing Options," posted in September of 2008 and the most recent post, "The Dorrance Saga: A Reflection of Chages in Publishing During the Past 90 Years." The information contained in those posts will give you a good idea about the history and background of Dorrance.

Thank you for your feedback. I think you have made a good suggestion for another post, one that concentrates on how to get people to read your blog once you have created it. I will work on that. In the meantime, I would say choose a host that provides the opportunity to list key words and meta tags on your blog, which will get the search engines to recognize that your posts address certain topics. In that way, when those topics come up in searches, your blog will appear in the list that pops up, and individuals will be able to click on your site. Commenting on other blogs and leaving trackballs for your blog are also helpful activities to drive readers to your blog.

Unfortunately, I am working right now, so cannot listen to the interview. However, I do plan to listen to it as I think this is a very interesting and important topic. I haven't seen much writing done on self publishing being more effective for certain races before, so I am definitely very curious. Thanks for this post!

Interesting blogging article. Just one question: how do you get people to read it?
You could be writing for yourself if there isn't a way to get other people interested.
...and the marketing aspect is missing in the article ... at least they way I see it.

I Blog almost every night and am really enjoying it. I appreciate it when people comment on my blogs. Some do not agree with me but they have their opinion and I have mine.

Easy to follow and informative article. Appears not too difficult to create your own blog, if you are serious about it. Thank you.
