Book Publishing - It's Not What it Used to Be

It's a different world now. With electronic point of sale, print on demand, internet bookselling, new delivery formats like e-readers, several hundred thousand new titles in English coming out every year, a lot of what was said 6 years ago, or even 6 months ago, is now out of date.But author Tim Ward and publisher John Hunt did something about it. They got together and wrote a very informative book about book publishing for today's struggling writers.Titled The Author's Guide to Publishing and Marketing, the 210-page book starts with the unbiased truth about the book publishing business today. It goes on to help you find a publisher and then tells you how to get publicity for your book.As expected, a lot of the book deals with marketing because, dear writer, like it or not, today's author is the one most responsible for marketing his or her own book.However, Ward and Hunt tell you how to get your book into bookstores, how to utilize the internet for best results, and how to w
ork with the media.It even explains how to prepare your manuscript and explains the book production process to give you a broader view of the book publishing field.I feel that The Author's Guide to Publishing and Marketing is a must read for any would-be author, especially in these tough economic times.If you are an aspiring or perspiring writer, you will find this book to be an invaluable resource as you navigate the challenging terrain of book publishing and marketing. It's crammed full of time saving advice and specific suggestions to help authors make the most of their literary creations.This informative book draws from the experience of Tim Ward, author of four previous books, and of John Hunt, publisher of 0 Books.If you want to learn the secrets of publishing and marketing your book in this modern age, you should buy The Authors Guide To Publishing and Marketing.
