Not Every Author Can Self Publish or Produce Something Worth Reading

James Fitzgerald — Tue, 28 Dec 2010 23:20:09 +0000

The Los Angeles Times published an article (Future of Reading) that profiled a few authors who are successfully publishing their work themselves.

While this could be a better option for many authors, it all comes down to an author’s ability to produce something worth reading and their ability to connect with readers to generate sales. Many authors need guides through the writing, packaging and marketing of their book.

5 E-Book Trends That Will Change the Future of Publishing

While I am almost sick of eBook news, I suppose we must discuss to move forward and adapt. Mashable.com recently published “5 E-Book Trends That Will Change the Future of Publishing” and I am most interested in the first and last trends.

Yes, enhanced eBooks will become key but it will be challenging to create engaging enhanced eBooks with quality content. Also, how do we decide if it is indeed an eBook or an Application?

Authors will need a publisher with resources or talented freelancers to edit, create, and market their work. Online and in eBook marketplaces there will be even more competition and struggle to stand out and generate sales.

In 2011, we are launching multiple products to help an author or publisher create enhanced eBooks with engaging content, social functionality and ways to publicize individual books and authors online. Stay tuned for an exciting year…

Thanks to a special gel, Popular Science editor Theodore Gray’s hand was captured being set ablaze. Technically speaking, the “sodium polyacrylate polymer in the gel holds a large amount of water, which protects the author’s hand.” Mr. Gray is also the author of Mad Science and The Elements.

Mid-September

SEE YOU IN SEPTEMBER lyrics

I’ll be alone each and every night
While you’re away, don’t forget to write

Bye-bye, so long, farewell
Bye-bye, so long

See you in September
See you when the summer’s through
Here we are (bye, baby, goodbye)
Saying goodbye at the station (bye, baby, goodbye)
Summer vacation (bye, baby bye, baby)
Is taking you away (bye, baby, goodbye)

Have a good time but remember
There is danger in the summer moon above
Will I see you in September
Or lose you to a summer love
(counting the days ’til I’ll be with you)
(counting the hours and the minutes, too)

Bye, baby, goodbye
Bye, baby, goodbye
Bye, baby, goodbye (bye-bye, so long, farewell)
Bye, baby, goodbye (bye-bye, so long)

Have a good time but remember
There is danger in the summer moon above
Will I see you in September
Or lose you to a summer love
(I’ll be alone each and every night)
(While you’re away, don’t forget to write)

See you (bye-bye, so long, farewell)
In September (bye-bye, so long, farewell)
I’m hopin’ I’ll
See you (bye-bye, so long, farewell)
In September (bye-bye, so long, farewell)
Well, maybe I’ll
See you (bye-bye, so long, farewell)
In September (bye-bye, so long, farewell)
