I think, provided you know how to work off a ladder safely, fascia is pretty straightforward to install. It is much better with two people to do it though, but if you do it yourself, don't drive your nails (or screws) home until you are certain that your joints are tight and your board is straight.
If your old fascia is rotten, you should expect the framing behind them to also be rotten. You will probably have to add good lumber in places so that you have something to fasten to. This is also usually basic carpentry. It is a good time to inspect the lower portion of your attic to ensure that no insulation is touching the roof deck while you are at it. If you have to remove soffit for this project, number them in the order you remove them.
Nothing is worse than finding out your last few pieces are too short because they belonged somewhere else.

Try to plan your new fascia boards so that you only have joints on new wood. I actually prefer PVC fascia boards, but they are expensive, and require a different technique. The hardest part doing it with one person is fascias are typically 8' x 1' x 16' planks of cedar, they weigh about 30 pounds and the length makes it cumbersome to hold in place while trying to attach it while standing on a ladder. Unless you get lucky and the rafter tail is nearly dead center of the plank you're going to have a little more length on one end which is going to make it tricky to keep level. You'd want to nail it nearest the center and then tack the ends both ends in place and then move onto the next plank so that you can be sure the whole side is straight and then go back and nail the fascia with nails at the top and bottom at each rafter tail.
