Speaking of self-publishing....I wonder if anyone has had any experience
with these folks

Not exactly Phaidon ;-), but it looks intriguing...

i get royalties from both the us and "overseas" -- but this is something
that's worked out in your contract. however, i think the author was talking
about publishing himself, which would make that irrellivant (sp) what he
needs is distribution. not sure how well you can do on amazon alone, but
somebody needs to do the experiment :-)

we should probably beg for the wisdom of peter miller who does this quite
well himself with his own imprint, silver print press.
