| Author 101 Bestselling Book Publicity: The Insider's Guide to Promoting Your Book--and Yourself by Adams Media Corporation Perfect for ALL writers | As an author, I'm always on the lookout for books that can help with publicity, marketing, and promoting. This book was a pure gem.
This book is worth the purchase price just for Chapter 11 (E-mail Blasts) alone. With tips for propelling your book to the top of the bestseller lists by e-mail marketing, this chapter takes you by the hand and leads you through the process step by step in a quick and painless way.
This book doesn't just tell you how to promote and publicize your book; it shows you with sample letters and action steps.
If you're ready to pump up your promotion and get your book noticed, then this book should be on your list of must-haves!
| | Author 101 Bestselling Book Publicity: The Insider's Guide to Promoting Your Book--and Yourself by Adams Media Corporation A must-read before you start writing | While I own all four of the "Author 101" books by Rick Frishman and Robyn Spizman, I feel this one is the most valuable. In fact, I wish I had it BEFORE I started writing my first book. The information and helpful tips included from these industry insiders is worth a hundred-times the price of the book. I have met and spoken with both Rick and Robyn, and I will attest that what they tell you in this book is gospel truth.
After you read this book, you will gain insight into how best to plan the marketing and publicity of your book even before you write it. This is key information whether you are using a traditional publisher, or if you are self-publishing. In fact, if you are self-publishing, READ and MEMORIZE chapter 8 on Interviews -- this will be the primary source of your income.
I highly recommend this and the other three books in the "Author 101" series.
Happy reading and successful writing,
Stuart Gustafson, Author

Apple Announces iPhone 2.0, Releases SDK
TidBITS: “The Core OS layer is largely the same as in Mac OS X, though with better power management. The Core Services layer includes things like SQLite for database storage and Core Location, which uses cell tower and Wi-Fi network data to determine location, which only the Maps application currently employs. The Media layer enables the iPhone to play audio and video, and includes things like Core Audio from Mac OS X. And lastly, Cocoa Touch replaces Cocoa as the application framework upon which all applications are built; Cocoa assumes a keyboard and mouse for input, whereas Cocoa Touch assumes that all input comes via touch - single touch, multi-touch, and gestures.”

Karelia has also made this available as a framework for other developers to use. (Hint to Daniel—this could be cool for MarsEdit.)
