Hello, I'm Bert Martinez, I'm looking to network with success minded authors. If you would like my free report 30 Strategies for Selling More Books just fill out the form below. I look forward to networking with you and if there is anything that I can help you with please do not hesitate to contact me.
Dennis,
Like you I retired, but still do part-time consulting personally and for the US. Small Business Administration's SCORE (consultants to small business). I decided to write a novel encompassing real life experiences mixed in with fiction. I've financed publishers during my venture capital career, so I know something about the market place, publishing industry and promotion. I did a 3/6 months due diligence and tried and tested the vanities, pods, agents, etc. I knew I would have to self-publish, since no one knew me and they are really as you know looking for the John Grishams, etc.. However, my daughter-in-law published two books with Iuniverse in 2000 and 2001. At that time the cost was negligible and she self-promoted. Since then they have merged with Authorhouse...which shows some astuteness on Authorhouse's part. Consequently, I went with them and I've picked and choosed what part of the menu I want. My grassroots marketing I can take care of myself. However, I don't want boxes of books in my garage...since they are a POD and will drop ship on my behalf. If you'd like to see what I've done: Goggle: Ralph L. McNeal, Sr - Sleeper Cell.

Hi Dennis,
I met a retired NYC detective in Magdalena, NM while doing some research. His name is Armand Romano. I'm sure he could write a book or two about his career.
My own book is set in 1883 and is built around a shooting in northcentral Texas where a young man would kill a man in self-defense but would be charged with first degree murder. I've spent a lot of time learning about law enforcement and the legal system from that time period. A lot has changed for sure!
