Profile Information

Something About Me and My Book:: I've been an author for fifty years with articles, books, and newspaper writing behind me. Now it is on to the next 8 books on my list to write. The first novel FOR WHAT HE COULD BECOME was followed by THE MOST EXPENSIVE MISTRESS IN JEFFERSON COUNTY and it has gotten excellent reviews. I founded the Alaska Writers Guild in May 2007 with a start group of twelve writers. We now have 260 and I'm hoping for 400 before I get back from the desert in April. I also founded the Alaska Writers Conference in August of 2007.
We have about 120 people for three days of authors, editors, agents, publishers, and marketing gurus. THE CUT OF PRIDE will be out March 15, 2012 and my goal is to sell 1,000 copies before then. Several book clubs signed up for their copies as well as signing dates with Barnes & Noble, Costco, and a few independents hither, thither, and yon. The second novel won second prize in a national independent press contest for fiction. See you amongst the bookshelves. Jim www.JimMisko.com

At 2:46pm on December 31, 2007, E.J. Samadhi Whitehouse said…: Hi there! Great fun looking at your site and ALL that you have done, are doing, and plan on doing...busy guy but clearly happy!! BRAVO for your accomplishments; something I aspire to and your successes only give fire to the flame so, for that, THANKS!! When you have time {ha-ha}, I'd love to know how to get my book to book clubS! That is something I feel is a perfect fit for reading Circles in the Sand and sharing and healing. Sadly, the "creator" of Canada's book clubs read my book, completely missed the plot, and seemed to write from ego rather than from heart and was stuck on "chakras" although my book is not about chakras. It was one of the oddest reviews I've seen for anyone and it's the only "bad" review I've had. And she's the head so that seems to have closed a Canadian door. I was going to contact her but it felt like I needed to not engage... I think I'm telling way too much information, considering you asked a simply question--"Hey, wanna be a friend?" {ha-ha again and sorry for the explosion of WORDS}!

One can spend an eternity roving the internet and landing on sites that do not produce much for the author. Kinda like to know what sort of action is taking place on this site. Thanks for the reference. I'm interested--just want more info. Jim Misko

I just received a check from my publisher. I sold seven additional books for the month and the check was for $3.02 after taxes. POD is becoming less and less attractive these days.

It was okay for starters when I was trying to get into the game. But now that I am in, I am playing to win. I will keep you posted of my progress.

As always, thanking you in advance for your continued support!

Happy Reading!
