This document provides an overview of indie publishing and self-publishing options for authors. It notes that nearly half of all books published annually in the US are self-published. Indie publishing means taking responsibility for all aspects of publishing from writing to editing to marketing. Authors can pay companies to handle services or do it themselves. Paid services can be expensive but provide a full-service option. Creating and publishing through Amazon's Kindle Direct Publishing or CreateSpace offers affordable indie publishing options that give authors more control over pricing and distribution. Success requires dedication to both writing and self-promotion. The document promotes one author's independently published book of Christmas poems as an example.

Presented at the University of Iowa IT Tech Forum on May 30, 2013. If the history of system administration resembles firefighting, then the future more closely resembles city planning. As IT systems grow in complexity and scale, system administrators are uniquely positioned to help their organizations “connect the dots” by identifying the information that will improve decision-making and then communicating it in the right context. Topics will include: making service-level metrics part of routine system monitoring, reducing the on-call burden and shifting the balance from reactive to proactive work, anticipating useful diagnostic data, capturing historical data to identify trends, using forecasts to manage capacity and prevent problems before they occur, sharing information throughout the organization using blogs and other media, and how to demonstrate the value of these efforts to senior management.

POD provides opportunities for both authors and publishers to get books to market faster and more cost effectively compared to traditional offset printing.
This document discusses self-publishing a book to raise your personal brand and drive your business. Some key points made are:
- Self-publishing a book establishes you as an expert and solution provider, acting as a business card that isn't thrown away.
- Producing a professionally made book with elements like an editor, cover design, and printing requires an investment of $4,000-$8,000 but can yield speaking opportunities and customer leads.
- The goal of writing the book should be to solve a problem or change how people think in order to engage readers and drive traffic to your business.
- Producing an initial run of 100-200 books is recommended to promote the book and raise awareness
The document discusses whether one should write a business book and what to consider before doing so. Some key points covered include:
1) Writing a book can boost credibility, visibility, marketing and sales. However, one must ensure the book topic leverages their expertise and solves client problems.
2) Authors can either self-publish to gain more control over the process or work with a publisher for credibility but a longer timeline.
3) The writing process involves extensive research, outlining, drafting, revising with critiques, editing, and planning book promotion strategies.
