So You Wrote It... Now What? Turn Books Into Business
Horror novelist / media pro demonstrates business model for self-published authors.

BROOKINGS, SD - Horror author Serenity J. Banks is writing a book about selling books, and she's proving it while she writes it.

On February 1, 2012, Banks launched So You Wrote It... Now What? Everything I Know About How You Can Sell Your Books at www.RedheadedStepchildBooks.com. She's writing the book one blog post at a time, sharing in-depth, firsthand how-to material for self-published authors who want to turn their books into a business.

What's more: she's using her own day-to-day experience in promoting the book she's writing as a real-time demonstration of the principles she's sharing.

This isn't just another how-to book about self-publishing, marketing, and sales strategies for authors. Banks is writing a book about how authenticity, vision, and living on purpose, combined with practical know-how about self-publishing, marketing, and sales strategies, can result in a fulfilling, self-supporting business model for authors who want to make it a way of life.

"My core message isn't about making money from book sales," Banks says. "My message to authors is about believing in yourself, being true to yourself, and living on faith to activate the vision inside you. If you're doing the right things at the right times for the right reasons, the book sales will follow. I'm just providing the tools I've used to take my destiny as an author into my own hands; it's up to each individual author to decide how far he or she is willing to take it."

In coming months, Banks will take authors step by step through the processes of building a promotional platform, developing a social media presence, launching a public relations campaign, designing a Web marketing strategy, producing and publishing a book in print and e-book formats, and selling a self-published book. Meanwhile, she will demonstrate her strategies and principles in real-time as she builds buzz for the upcoming release of So You Wrote It... Now What? Everything I Know About How You Can Sell Your Books.

With real-world know-how from "both sides of the desk," Banks draws on a decade of experience as an editor, designer, and marketer in the newspaper, magazine, and digital media fields. She is the author of The Left Hand, a literary/religious horror novel set primarily in Western South Dakota, and she is also a co-founder of Dark Continents Publishing, Inc., based in Brookings County. Operating as Redheaded Stepchild Author Liaisons, Banks provides media and marketing services for self-published authors.

LES MOTS ALLUMETTES de Cathy Garcia, souscription en cours chez Cardère Ed.

Les mots allumettes

Cathy Garcia – poésie, 52 p.

avec des illustrations originales de l'auteur

 

EXTRAITS :

 

Survivre, hanches fendues de foudre, gorge dépouillée.

Je marche, froisse un fantôme. Les oiseaux

du jour fondent en l’air. Je plie les genoux,

ramasse mes entrailles de verre. Un peu de sel, un

peu de chair. Je ramasse et enjambe

l’éblouissement.

 

…

Avale-moi, dis-je au bois. Écorce-moi, dis-je à

l’homme, lentement comme un coma.

Terre et copeaux. Ma langue éboulée au creux du

refuge.

Je suis morcelée. Là mon coeur, là un poumon.

Là mon âme et des frontières entre chaque terrier.

 

Piqûre du vivre. Miel rauque du secret. Nudité

inhabitable.

Se sertir dans un jardin amer. Ciseler le semblant,

en élucider les ramifications.

J’épouse le cercle de la cohérence oubliée.

 

…

Buisson des cuisses où croassent les crapauds.

Rumeur des langues qui lapent les pierres.

Bouillon noir des reins vrillés de trouille. La vie et

son implacable sentence de mort.

La brume se faufile dans la fissure, embaume

l’esprit de visions funestes. Ce qui transpire des

murs, c’est le goût de l’ombre. Il ébouriffe et déshabille

le sang.

 

Nous vous proposons d’acquérir ce recueil en souscription, à 10 € au lieu de 12 € jusqu’à sa date de parution, le 30 mars 2012.

Nous comptons sur votre désir de lire, sur votre avis, et sur le bouche à oreille, seules vraies et justes bases de la notoriété d’un écrivain et de la qualité littéraire d’une maison d’édition.

Rendez-vous sur www.cardere.fr

Bulletin de souscription ci-joint.
