I'm currently finishing a graduate certificate program at NYU for publishing, and hoping to find a job in Publicity within the industry. Do you think there is a need/potential open space in the self-publishing realm for an outside publicist? Thanks for sharing your knowledge, experience and advice.

I wrote a book about our experience as a family moving from UK to The Canary Islands, and tried and failed to get it published electronically. Eventually I self published it as an E Book and promoted it through my real estate website. Thanks to you Joanna, I then discovered Lulu and published it there as a paperback. I'll never be rich on it, but the sales across the two media buy us at least a top class meal out every week. My advice? Don't wait, do it now! I had an interesting experience with this.
