This 4 slide presentation discusses the reasons for self-publishing and the personal goals of the author. The presentation explores why people write, defining the differences between a raconteur, writer, and author. It then outlines the author's personal goals for self-publishing, which include sharing the writing process with his wife, telling stories, conducting research, spending no money on publishing, meeting other creative people, and generating a positive cash flow. The final slides make assumptions that the audience has a manuscript in progress, access to a computer, and enjoys learning and hard work.
