Self Publish Your Books

After looking at this post via Lemonodor via Planet Lisp, I personally feel that more Lisp authors should self-publish their books on the web and serve them as downloadable softcopies. There are many sites that let people sell e-books, and I would anyday buy something that is good quality writing like Peter Siebel's upcoming book.

This will help keep more of the money in the authors pocket's (which they deserve) and hold other rights to the content that they create. There are many reasons why I think this is a better approach than using a publisher especially in a small and niche market segment like Lisp related material.
