Just type in google dpt.amazon.com Pauline. That is where you sign up for their ebooks. You will need your ISBN before you can upload. Ellen

Very impressed again that Mark replies so quickly. Here's his reply about Amazon: Hi Pauline, I don't have a firm ETA yet. Since it doesn't need to be an either/or decision for you, one option is to use Smashwords for non-Amazon retailers, and then…

Chicken and Egg Thoughts about Publishers Weekly Best Books List

Is the list missing books by female authors because their books are not getting published in the first place? Is there a problem with the universe of books from which to choose? Are books by female authors published more often in genres that are not seriously considered for the list? Or could it be that books by female authors are receiving lower advances and fewer marketing resources and are therefore not on the radar screen of PW?

I can't help thinking of an article in the… Continue

BECOMING YOUR OWN PUBLISHER

A few days ago Robbers Nest Press released Waltzing Jimmy Jackboy. I wrote the novel and created the publishing company to publish it. Why did I create my own press? I almost didn’t.

I should point out that I'm both an author (co-authored a doctor's memoir that sold at auction on the basis of my proposal) and a literary agent. So, I speak from experience. Anita
