Is there any way to publish a self hosted wordpress blog into a book? If not do you think there will be in the future?
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I don't know much about wordpress, but I do know about blogs. You must want to publish a certain time period of a blog, active or inactive.
The first question is whether or not you have publishing rights to it. If it's your own selr-hosted blog, yes.
(I sure hope it's not loaded with photos. This will work on text-only blogs.. Easier than it sounds.)
The next question is if it can be dumped to a file. THAT I don't know, but I do know that at minimum, it could be done by simply copying the screen and pasting it into a word-processor, or into notepad if you don't mind reformatting it--that will strip away any of the photos and formatting tags and things that may make a website look good, but be a nightmare to handle in a document. Save it.
Then just take word wrap off (format tab), select all, COPY (don't CUT or CLIP) and paste it into the word processor, and THEN make it look all pretty. Save that.
Convert it to a .pdf file. If you don't have a program, go to zamzar.com. you can do it online, fast & free. And of course...save that.
Then, go the #1 place I think of when I think "self-publish": http://lulu.com
Best thing of all, it's free to set up the book. Excellent for short-runs or on-demand printing to be sold through your website.
