How to Publish a Book: Part 2-Prepare for Publishing

  Recap: So in the last post, we talked about getting your book from wish to reality. Having a complete and polished book is essential, even if you go the traditional publishing route. Because let's face it, With all the thousands of books that get written every month, what chance do you stand of getting your book out there if it's only slush pile material?   Now, let's talk Publishing   I think we all want to have our first book or book series become viral sensations.

How to Publish a Book: Part 1-Writing the book

    If you're following us, by now you know that BC Crow is Blue House's first real author. Since we're his first publisher, we are all learning the ropes together. If you are a brand new author who wants to self publish or you want to start your own publishing company, please, learn from our mistakes.   First of all I, BC Crow, am heavily involved in Blue House Publishing. I may have a publishing company now, but most of the nuances are still the same as if I were self publishing. So why not

Nephilim

 "Okay, so you're writing some books about Nephilim. Great--What are Nephilim?" This is usually the first question I get when I tell people about the books in my Nephilim Series.  נפלים (Hebrew for Nephilim) Nephilim are a group of people, mentioned in the Bible.

Dreamers

A lot of people scoff at dreamers. Even I once felt ashamed to think that I was a dreamer. But then I learned a very distinct and important perspective.   These dreamers are good.

MY DEBUT NOVEL: THE NEPHILIM DEVICE

Check it out!! I'm practically giving this first book away for FREE!!   Look it up on Goodreads, you can follow the link below.
