How To Sell Your Book
December 11, 2006
Author John Connolly has a terrific post on how to judge your book's success and what goes into selling it. Here's a sample:
"But the hardest part, for me, has been coming to terms with the fact that, while I can write the book, I can't make it sell. Even publishers and booksellers can't quite manage to make a book sell, not alone. Each book needs a little bit of luck. Some books don't have any luck at all, and some seem to be gifted with luck out of all proportion to the quality of the work, but that element of luck is out of everybody's control. A writer can lay the groundwork for it by writing the best book that he can."
Check it out!
And Ron Estrada has a great review of THE DEVIL'S PITCHFORK. Thanks Ron!
