Cool, well done! Would be nice to read a contents page so we can have an overall view of what is being talked about. And don't put yourself down in your writing be confident, you don't have to tell people know you are not an expert,  just leave details like that out and focus in on the experience you have.

The contents page is a good idea. A bit late for a revision of the publication cause then I will have to republish with a new url, however what I will do is post the content as description.

Yea, that has always been a weak point of mine, being too much my own critic. Will change that in future edition

here is the content:

Part 1:From birth to 31 years old

Introduction : Early Life(1978-1989)
Chapter 1 : Studies and life in France(1989-1999)
Chapter 2:  Studies and life in the USA(1999-present)

Part 2: Concert Career Self Management

Chapter 1: What one needs before starting self management?
Chapter 2: How to find concerts?Who to contact ?How about fees?
Chapter 3: Social Networks and Self Management
Chapter 4: General Self Management

small bump for this e-book.
Please note that I have changed the method of selling. Instead of using the lulu site, I am now hosting the e-book and upon successful payment, you will be redirected to the e-book.

Thank you for the interest and purchase.
