for free.
I had been eyeing it for at least a year, so jumped on the opportunity to
read it at zero cost.

What I like most about it is that it shows you how other ordinary people
have succeeded at publishing their own ebooks.
At 179 pages, it will take you a while to get through it, but considering
the amount of real-life tips inside, it's probably a good thing not to read through it in a flash.
