Good Things Coming for Authors

My traditional pre-publication discount offer is official. You can now order a copy of the newly revised edition of The Right Way to Write, Publish and Sell Your Book AND the accompanying Author’s Workbook at my Web site http://www.matilijapress.com/rightway.html

As you’ll notice, there are 4 ordering options.

(The discount offers are good through September 20, 2007 only.)

Some of you are going to ask, “Why would I buy the second edition if I already have the first edition in my library?” Good question. Here’s my response:

While the 2007 version of The Right Way to Write, Publish and Sell Your Book is basically the same book as the 2006 edition and, while you can use the original book quite effectively for years to come, the revised second edition includes important updates and concepts that the first edition doesn’t have. Plus, the Author’s Workbook, while it can be successfully used with the first edition, is specifically designed to accompany the second edition. Below I list 20 changes and additions you’ll find in the second edition:

• There’s more information for authors in all categories of fiction.
• There are a total of 25 Index entries for authors of poetry and children’s books.
• We offer more assistance to help you write a book proposal for fiction.
• We’ve expanded the section on promoting fiction.
• You’ll learn how to build promotion into your novel.
• We include tips for novelists and children’s book authors who want to appear on radio and TV.
• We explain how to establish your platform and we provide examples.
• We’ve added information about promoting through book “trailers” or videos.
• We explain how to sell books through your blog.
• We provide information about fulfillment services.
• We’ve updated industry information (fees, contact numbers, etc.).
• We’ve updated and added new industry statistics.
• There are 27 new entries in the Resource Directory, now giving you 212 resources.
• We recommend several new books, including two books on how to make money with your poetry and one that rates fee-based POD “self-publishing” companies.
• We’ve listed more subheadings in the Table of Contents for easier access to the sections you seek.
• We’ve developed a more useful, more complete Index by expanding it from 9 pages to 16.
• We provide some unexpected and highly useful references on key publishing topics and issues.
• We give you the tools to check sales figures on any book in Ingram’s database.
• The book is packaged with a more appealing cover.
AND THE MOST EXCITING ADDITION OF ALL…
• We’ve designed a workbook to accompany the revised second edition.
