“Is there money in e-books?” It’s a question often repeated and, while I think the dynamics of the publishing world will continue to transform over the next few years, it is a question worth investigating. Traditional publishers are changing their stances. For the “little guy,” the “indie publisher,” there are a host of fantastic folks (book authors and bloggers) who work hard to announce changes, expose problems, explore and share marketing information, and mentor one way or the other. The list is growing, but a few of my favorites are: David Gaughran Lindsay Buroker J. A. Konrath Joanna Penn Jeff […]

Self publishing can be challenging for the independent author—As if writing the book weren’t difficult enough, we have editing, formatting, covers, and distribution to deal with. Smashwords has knocked the socks off the traditional publishing route, and there are a few newcomers rising through the ranks of the search engines to give them some competition. In the following article, expert and indie mentor David Gaughran lays out some pros and cons worthy of our attention.  Reblogged from David Gaughran: Since I started self-publishing in 2011, Smashwords has been the overwhelming favorite for savvy self-publishers who wanted or needed a distributor […]

While everyone else is in a dither about J.K. Rowling’s pseudonym and whether or not her new book is doing well, I have taken an axe to the series I’ve been working on. Not THE axe, mind you. Have no fear, the Tairenth novels will proceed! If you take note of the progress bar for my current projects, you’ll see that Book One is nearly finished—and it’s pretty good, if I dare say so myself. It tells the story of Kai’s youth and carries him through some very terrible times. All very exciting, but I also feel like it handicaps […]
