Words of Wisdom from Two Industry Specialists...in a Nutshell

The publishing industry can seem difficult to navigate for the modern author, especially now with the introduction of digital publishing, electronic readers, and a seemingly infinite number of web-based outlets for advertising, branding, and so on...
...How does one make sense of it all? Two publishing industry specialists are prepared to help you along this great and arduous journey to better distribution, more effective networking, and the establishment of a more complete understanding of what you want to accomplish as an author. The book that will be your guide is called Book Marketing, Book Trailers, and Author Etiquette in a Nutshell by Sheila Clover English and Barbara Vey. From start to finish it provides you, the writer (whether aspiring or established), with helpful hints and direct instruction for improving your web presence and responding accordingly to your fan-base of readers. In addition, the book gives insight into the development of a concept called the book trailer (I am almost certain that you have at least heard about these already), a form of web-based video advertising that gives you marketing leverage and provides your readers with a visually compelling way to learn about your book. Who would be better to give you the history behind book trailers than the person responsible for the idea, Sheila Clover English? In particular chapters, you also find firsthand accounts from authors about their experiences in a number of relevant (and sometimes awkward) circumstances.
If you are unsure about what to do with that bundle of pages that needs to find its way into readers' hands, then consult Book Marketing, Book Trailers, and Author Etiquette in a Nutshell. The book comes highly recommended for any writer who needs help getting to know the world of publishing in all of its glorious complexity, and it would seem particularly beneficial for those who are very new to the industry or have yet to actually publish material. You will learn from this book.
Sheila Clover English is the founder and CEO of Circle of Seven Productions, a marketing specialist for authors and publishers, as well as the company that pioneered the book trailer industry.
