I would be interested in this. I've never heard of Lulu, so I'll check them out. I have some other work that is non-erotic that may use the outlets Lulu offers. Thanks.

Sometimes, I use my right hand. Other times I use the left hand. Lube always helps, too.

Oh, I thought you said "self-polishing". My mistake. evil4

Nothing wrong with a little "couch hockey for one", "fertilizing the lawn", or being like Frank Sinatra and "holdin' the mic kinda low", I always say. grommit

I found Lulu to be very easy to use. My book is "Magical Clothes", available in ebook and print. The one major drawback is that the print books are more expensive than mass-produced books. As e-books, however, they are quite reasonable.

You will definitely need to do your own marketing in a big way. Lulu is JUST a printer and distributor, NOT a publisher. Making your title available there isn't going to get you any sales all by itself. Many people shy away from self-published titles because so many of them are so shoddily edited.

Mine excepted, of course.
