One thing I always do when I finish a book is upload it to Createspace and order one copy for myself. I never sell it, it's just a personal keepsake for my own shelves. I've done it four times and never got around to doing it for my last book.

Fixed that today. :)

@hcmarks
I format and typeset my self-pub books as paperbacks, painstakingly, in the optimistic hope that I'll sell a few.
The outcome is more or less the same, though :)
