The future of publishing

There was an interesting article in the local daily, The Post Star, Glens Falls, NY.

The story was about a book store in southern VT, The Northshire Bookstore, Manchester.

Supposedly, this is one of Stephen King's favorite independents.

Anyway, the store is now into POD publishing with a unit called The Espresso Book Machine.

I checked them out and their prices are higher than I pay at Lulu but I mention it because it certainly points out how POD is becoming a major… Continue

Pete interviewed

INTERVIEW WITH THE WRITER PETE KLEIN







WHAT DID YOU FIRST READ? How did you begin to write? Who were the first to read what you wrote?

Probably Dick and Jane. Maybe before Dick and Jane was comics. I don't recall any early desire to write, certainly not before high school. Reading came first. Listening to the radio, watching TV and movies. In grade school, I advanced to Classic Comics. The first major novel in High School was "Great Expectations."

My first… Continue

The Federal Vampire & Zombie Agency

One of the more original web pages on vampires is The Federal Vampire & Zombie Agency (FVZA) at http://www.fvza.org

This site created by Dr. Hugo Pecos would tempt you to believe vampires and zombies are truly with us.

But do scroll down to the bottom of the page for the disclaimer.

On the other hand, if you read my vampire novels, The Dancing Valkyrie and The Vampire Valkyrie, you just might think the FVZA is yet but one more trick real vampires use to protect them and hide… Continue

Book publishing and promotion

Book publishing and promotion



These are my thoughts, based upon my experience in using the print on demand publishing services of Lulu.com and what to do after you publish.

My feeling about Lulu comes down to money. For about $100 you get an ISBN and what they call Global Distribution , which means your book is printed by Lightning and distributed through Ingram to online and regular retailers who chose to purchase a print on demand (POD) book.

Cost per book is based upon… Continue
