Finding Author Success
The news is full of stories about the state of the publishing industry. Change is everywhere. Debates abound as to who is responsible: big publishing houses, online stores or the meteoric rise of ebooks. Publishers, large and small, are leaving the tasks of marketing and promotion up to the author. If you're not already a best selling author, what's a writer to do? They ne...more

I highly recommend this book for ALL authors, especially those just starting out. Don...more

I've already completely rebuilt my author platform web site thanks to the advice from this book, and have seen sales spike a little, hopefully as a result. My book platform sites are next. I'm still learning on the social networking side, especially twitter, but this book gave a great lead on the how and why. A must...more
