1. Signing a
publishing contract is a serious matter. Susan Spann guest posts at Writers
in The Storm and talks about, "When Is a Book Out of Print."
Knowing this information can mean the difference between getting your rights
back or being stuck in a never-ending contract. This applies to both
traditional and self-publishing contracts.
2. Elaine Stock's
blog has long been a favorite. She recently announced that Everyone's Story has
moved to http://www.elainestock.com/blog/
3. I was particularly
interested in this WND
article on Costco's pulling of Dinesh De-souza's book, America - Imagine The World Without
Her. People were outraged and expressed it. I wrote to Costco and gave them my
opinion. Only when 17,000 Costco members went on the retail giant's website and
put a picture of themselves cutting up their Costco cards did they sit up and
take notice.
4. Susan Panzica at Eternity
Cafe, did a post for the New Year that I thought had great value. Forget
it! or Remember? I apologize this is so late, but it got lost among my emails.
By the way, Susan has a wonderful Christmas Book out called, "Mary Had A
Little Lamb."
5. I came across this
article on Facebook. Cover
design is crucial to the success of your book. Check it out.
Writers: If you've
had a book traditionally or Indie published, how were you involved with the
cover selection?
Readers: What kind of impact does the book cover have on
your choice whether or not to buy a title?
