The Book Marketing Network

For book/ebook authors, publishers, & self-publishers

I had my first sit down interview with a real magazine reporter the other day. I thought it went very well. Who knew I could talk about myself for two hours straight? haha

Rather than focus solely on my books, we talked about the indie publishing scene and how it is changing the traditional publishing game. I threw out a few good catch phrases like "Amazon.com is a book search engine and not a bookstore", and when asked which of my books is my favorite I responded "picking a favorite book is like picking a favorite child... I love them all the same for different reasons."

The magazine I'll be featured in is locally based but has an in-home reach of 104,000 households and an online reach of another 200,000. If the average household is four people and at least one person will read about me, that's a pretty big audience. But as I said to my wife, this is not about selling books it is about exposure. I want a movie or television deal!

The article comes out in August, so I'll post a link and what happens after.

As long as ebooks are around I'll keep publishing my stories, and if and when the publishing game changes again, I'll adapt and continue doing what I do. I'm not designed to do anything else.
