Those POD National & International Publishing Packages

If you've published a book with a POD publisher, half the work is done. Now you have to market your books and that is just as important as writing and publishing a book.

Maybe you've paid for the 25,000 online bookstore promotion package. OK, cool your in the data base, along with millions of other author's and books. Maybe you've paid for the national and international promotions package. That's great, now your again among the millions and millions of online books.

Have you Googled your books title, or maybe your name and found that your book is found on the search engines? That's great, however in all honesty does anyone other than you, your publisher and a few friends know the name of your book or who you are? Let's be honest, if your a first time author or a unknown author, who's going to search for your book by it's title or your name as the author?

As a author, you must market yourself and your book. That's where having a author media site becomes your starting point. You can showcase your book, a description of your book, your author description, some interesting things about yourself, share important links and share your contact information and where and how book lovers can order your book.

Provided that you can order your books from your publisher at a author's discount. Then you can sell them right from you're authors site and the profits by far exceed royalties.

Your author's media site becomes your online worldwide business card. It is where people can find you, read about your book, you as the author, about local book signings and whatever other interesting information and content you provide. Without your own personal website, or authors blog, your just another book and author among the millions and millions found online.

Some author's join every book club they can find, sign every guest book they can and join other author communities hoping that this will bring book sales. However, in the end, this usually proves to be a lot of work with very little results.

Publishing, Choosing The Right Publisher

There are many POD Publisher's out the that offer various publishing packages to author's. Some of them have some very attractive sites with endless pages to take in that offer lots of information. I have spend endless hours reading all the content on many POD Publisher's sites. That's a lot of reading and by the time you get to reading the publishing contract, things can get somewhat confusing.

Let me encourage you to take you're time when choosing a POD Publisher. Take the time to read "all" the content on the site, all the pages and do comparisons with other POD Publishers. There are some great POD Publisher's out there that offer some great publishing packages.

Do you're homework, find the right publisher for you, and get the best deal. Most importantly think things through from start to finish to make sure that the POD Publisher that you choose fits into you're overall vision and objective for you as a author and you're book.

Grab A Great Book, A Cup Of Java & Relax

Summers fast coming to an end and the winter and holiday season is soon upon us. That means much more time at home and a lot less time outdoors and especially with the time change. Truth is, it gets cold this time of the year especially in the Midwest and on the East Coast.

Makes for great time to grab a great book, some java and crank up the fireplace if you have one while enjoying a great book. If your like me you have your favorite local and community bookstores to visit. However sometimes some of the best prices are found online through various online book stores that will ship books directly to you. Amazon is high on my list, however I also like Barnes & Nobel. Another great online bookstore is Book Finder and Alibris . Truth is, there are some great online bookstores and book finder services online.

When Others Come Between Friends

Friendship is important and good friends are hard to find. It takes special people to have a healthy friendship. Yet sometimes others become in tangled in their own selfishness and come between friendships. I just wonder how many friendships have been destroyed or hindered by the words, actions, needs and desires of others.

Maybe you've lost a friend or some friends because of someone else. Maybe you've allowed someone to come in between you and someone that was special in you're life. If so, it's never to late to undue wrongs.

Who Started The First Blog

I've often wondered who started the 1st blog? Where did the concept come from and what did it look like on it's maiden voyage. Blogs have so changed over the years and they are constantly changing. Yet where did it all start at? Any thoughts and I'd love to hear your comments on the matter.

Blogging is fun, great mental exercise and the best part is when the spell check works. :)

Cookies, Milk, Cartoons & Chocolate Sundays

Dad, Dad, can we have cookies and milk and watch a cartoon? Oh come on dad, please? Fifteen minutes later, Dad, Dad, can I have ice cream and watch some more cartoons? Oh, please Dad. Ten minutes later, Dad, Dad, can I have some smarties? Please, please! please! dad!

Have you ever been there? If you have children, I bet you have. It's like where do they put it all? How is it possible to eat and eat and eat and still be skinny. Kid's eat and eat and eat. They also play, and play and play and run, and jump and play and run some more. I'm getting tired just thinking about it.

I don't know which is harder. Getting older or being a father. Both are definitely challenging at times. Well, I'm off, we are now having chocolate sundays with cherries (multiple) on top. I guess I should enjoy this, before long she will be asking for a new car.

It's fun to have fun with your kids, especially while they are young and exploring life.

Brain Virus's

The mind is like a computer. If one's not careful the data corrupts and overloads the system. Next thing you know the trash can has your name on it and the mouse won't work, and your keyboard gets caked with junk. One good look in the mirror and you realize your screen's got a virus.

Be careful what you download into your brain.

Spoiled Rotten Eggs

What aroma do you put off. Do you have a sweet loving aroma about you. Are you sincere, truthful, loving, compassionate or do you smell liked rotten spoiled eggs? An egg yoke is protected by a shell. In side that shell is where the yoke is found. What's beneath you're shell?

We should all have a wonderful beautiful aroma about us, and not that of spoiled rotten eggs.

That Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind Additude

Have you ever encountered a situation when someone owed you money that they promised to give to you, yet you never received it. Or maybe someone promised to take care of another matter, yet that too never came to pass. Next think you know, the person does everything they can to avoid you. That's because they don't want to be held accountable.

What the don't realize it that they are accountable and their actions or shall we say non actions will catch up with them and many times they will be multiplied bakc upon them in other areas of their life. You see, we all reap what we sow and if we sow dishonesty and broken promises, we will reap the fruit of such things.

We Reap The Things We Sow

Have you ever noticed how sometimes people's true colors shine through and the colors are the complete opposite of what they wanted you and others to think about them? Only to realize that you have been handed a continuous flow of deception and lies? It amazes me how some people use and abuse others basically to make up for their own miserable worthless lives. Many times you can even see the fruits of such people in their children do to the dysfunctional family and dysfunctional family lifestyle. It's sad because their lives are filled with endless scars, headaches, and metal illnesses and the affects upon the children lead to emotional problems, anger management problems, guilt, shame, embarrassments, and they become disconnected from reality.

Know this, they do not go un noticed and while they think they have pulled the wool over the eye's of many, in time, they will be exposed. You see, those who cast evil and wickedness upon others in the end become ensnared in their own ways. Life becomes endlessly painful for them, they continue to encounter emotional, mental and even health problems that soon overtake them. It's really sad to see a life and the lives of others waste away and decay like that. It's a long, slow and very painful death, yet death is withheld from them.

There is no peace, saith the LORD, unto the wicked.

Successful Key's That Open Doors Of Success


The pursuit of success can take on many shapes and forms. Usually a thought comes forth, an idea. Then that thought or idea is put into motion. Very much like planting seeds in the ground. The seeds must be good seeds, the soil must be good soil and the process requires patience for growth.

The key is not quitting after you've cultivated the soil and planted the seeds. If fear of failure sets in and you walk away, the weeds may grow up and destroy your harvest.

Never give up on your dreams, don't change course in mid stream and be careful of people that stick their nose in your river. For they may end up like beavers that create dams and stop the rivers flow.
