Joseph Jenkins began self-publishing when he turned his master’s thesis into the non-fiction Humanure Handbook and published it in 1995. The book was execrable, but it has gone on to sell over 90,000 copies in 4 editions, translated in whole or in part into 23 languages. It is available in Spanish on Amazon (Manual Del Humabono: La Caca en Breve). The non-fiction Slate Roof Bible, 1st edition, received the National Roofing Contractor’s Gold Circle Award. The 3rd edition received no less than 10 book awards. The Balance Point - a Missing Link in Human Consciousness, is considered “creative non-fiction." It was a 2019 IPPY Bronze Medalist, took 1st place in the Top Shelf Indie Book Awards, and won the New York City Big Book Awards in two separate categories! Slate Roofs 1926 is a modified reproduction of the original 84-page classic “Slate Roofs,” published in January 1926. The Compost Toilet Handbook is an illustrated instructional manual explaining how to make, use, and manage compost toilets, which are waste-free toilets that rely on the biological process of composting to recycle toilet material. Self Publishing Top Ten Tips is a short book Jenkins promised to write if he ever sold more than a million dollars of his own books (he wrote it after topping 3 million). Direct Democracy and the Curse of the Boiled Frogs, written for Jenkins grandchildren for when they grow up, is an attempt to start a conversation, if not a movement, about transforming government into real democracy.
