Yes, that's mostly what this book is. It's about business, strategy, self-promotion, marketing, and building a fan base. You'll find all that and more in Thread's Not Dead.
Since Safari on iPad cannot download ZIP files, you will need to download the files to a PC or MAC. Then unzip the contents and add your PDF or ePUB files to iTunes and sync your iPad. It will transfer the book to your iPad for viewing.
Yes there's an entire chapter on printing techniques and inspiration. It runs through the common practices and prepping files for print and communicating with your printer.
Sure! I originally created this archive of links for that purpose but it wasn't very user friendly. Fortunately, an avid reader cleaned it up and made a more user-friendly version.
For one, Amazon discourages you from pricing your ebooks higher than that. Also, the Kindle version does not include the bonus content and the layout isn't as thoroughly designed. It does contain the full text however.
