I came across this report on a new self-publishing platform:
How these Leeds businesswomen are booking the trend in online self-publishing
Dandylion Publishing appears to be more approachable than a lot of self-publishing venues. They offer editing services for one thing, and they appear to be fair on sharing profit from sales, offering a range of options on pricing.

My first reaction to their enterprise is that it could be a useful way of making some income, though with the caveat that their small size and personal approach might mean delays in having one's submission processed.
Then again, the first thing that we learn as writers is that you've always got to wait!
Another thing to consider is whether it's worth submitting a book that you might want to enter for a competition at a later date. Many contests require that an author's entry be unpublished in any form, as with the current Daily Mail/Penguin Random House competition for a first time novelist.
