Do you have any experiences with self published books from new/unknown authors? I’m considering checking that area out since the traditional published books are becoming so very similar due to the strict standards which lead to almost for every publishing house to deal with no authors but those they work with for years. Short story long: Books are becoming extremely repetitive and so BORING!!!

What do you say?

    There’s a real danger is self published books, because often the writer think more highly of his/her work than the reader (I worked a short time fir a publisher, sorting through send-in manuscripts, which was fun and frustrating at the same time). I have bought a few, if I get to talk to the writer first and it sounds appealing. One was actually good enough to get published, the others were entertaining.
