Former Random House Author Self-Publishes Thriller that Views 9/11 from New Perspective

As self-publishing becomes an increasingly popular option for writers of all kinds (the good and the not so good, those who have tried the agent route and those who haven’t), there are those who continue to cling – and probably will for some time – to the idea that self-publishing is an avenue for the author whose work just isn’t good enough for traditional publishers. No matter how many times or by how many reputable reviewers a quality self-published work has been vetted, there are reviewers who simply won’t look at it if it’s self-published, and there are readers (who […]

Quantum Physics & the Art of Departure: An Interview with Craig Lancaster

About a month ago, Craig Lancaster asked me if I’d like to be “the voice” for a book trailer he and RJ Keller were putting together for his upcoming collection. I’m not a voice actor, and I’m not a professional reader, but somehow, some way, word got around that I have a good recording voice. Stunned and flattered, I naturally said yes.

I’ve grown acquainted with Craig over the course of this year, but I’d heard of him prior to connecting via the usual social networks. If you keep your ear to the ground of the indie and self-publishing “scene,” […]

Author Interview: Amy Miles

1. How did you come to self-publish? Did you try to get published traditionally?

I chose to self-publish my new teen romance book, Defiance Rising, because I wanted control over my book. I wanted to use my talented sister-in-law to create my book cover as well as be able to control the price at which my book could be downloaded. I did contact a few agents throughout the previous year, and a couple showed some interest in my book, but it wasn’t the “in thing” at the moment. So I decided to devote the time and effort into myself, instead […]

Then, organize brackets, stage it for the public’s entertainment, offer a prize and call it The Adventure Tournament.

Pearce Hansen: Author Interview

1. How did you come to self-publish? Did you try to get published traditionally?

Why re-publish my novel STREET RAISED for the Kindle? For me there’s a sense here of striking while the iron is hot, and of dissatisfaction with what currently feels like a traffic jam in the whole brick & mortar book sales system due (in my opinion) both to panic over the current economic meltdown, and the impact of the new technologies on the traditional publishing process.

Technically this is not ‘self publishing,’ but rather the digital re-release of a traditionally published book. My second novel STAGGER […]
