Self-publishing

Self-publishing is getting an increasing amount of coverage in the media, with several self-published books having won awards or gained high-profile deals.

Danuta Kean in The Sunday Telegraph (free registration required) profiles the latest success story, Peter J Murray, who has gone on to sign a big deal with Hodder.
Murray's debut, Mokee Joe is Coming, which was inspired by stories he told to his own children, was self-published last autumn and sold 12,000 copies after he promoted it in local bookshops and schools.
You can find out more about self-publishing on the Writers' Guild website.
