Can you please give me some advice about your publishing experience?

Did you format the book yourself? Does it have illustrations, and did they translate properly?

Did you go Amazon-only, or are you also selling it through Ingram or your own website?

Are your sales primarily electronic or paper?

Thanks so much! I'm just about to pull the trigger on a thing myself and I have a lot of tough decisions to make now.
