For any who want to self publish their writing or any other content and
want to avoid costs and hastles of dealing with publishers, consider
creating a series of web pages, say one chapter per web page on a Google
Sites website. I back up and add content to my research guides on Google
Sites and have quite a few extensive bibliographies on Google sites.
.
To access Google Sites one must log in with their free Google Mail or
Gmail account.
.
There are numerous links to Google Sites websites on this web page.

.
This link will provide an idea of how extensive a Google Sites website can
be, this one has 31 web pages of about ten word document pages long each.

.
Since Google is very fond of Google, content on Google space is indexed by
Google, hence your content on Google Sites will have visibility in Google
searches.
