This document is a slide presentation on self-publishing. The first slide asks why people write and what drives them creatively as a raconteur, writer, or author. The second slide outlines the presenter's personal goals for self-publishing, which include sharing the writing process with his wife, telling his stories, conducting research, spending no money on publishing, meeting other creative people, and generating a positive cash flow. The third slide lists some assumptions the presenter has about the audience, including that they have a manuscript in progress, access to a computer or laptop, and enjoy learning and working hard.
