This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you are interested in this book, I presume you have written a book or plan to write one, and are thinking of self-publishing it. If so, this is the place to start. If you self-publish a non-fiction book of interest to a defined target market, or a book of fiction for people who read the genre you have produced, you can begin to promote it to interested readers. I have sold close to 10,000 books. So while I'm no E.L. James (author of the originally self-published 50 Shades of Grey), I am a happy and profitable self-published author. Perhaps you can become one too. Having said that, your desire to self-publish may not be all about book sales. You may be looking to write a book to give to family and friends. You may be looking to gain the credibility that publishing a book gives a speaker or workshop leader. You may have other reasons for publishing your book. No matter your reason, this book will answer many of your self-publishing questions, point you in the right direction and get you started. In short, as the title says, this book will help you produce, price and promote your self-published book.

Download or read book Adorno Foucault and the Critique of the West written by Deborah Cook and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2018-11-27 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The alliance of critical theory between Frankfurt and Paris Adorno, Foucault and the Critique of the West argues that critical theory continues to offer valuable resources for critique and contestation during this turbulent period. To assess these resources, it examines the work of two of the twentieth century's more prominent social theorists: Theodor W. Adorno and Michel Foucault. Although Adorno was situated squarely in the Marxist tradition that Foucault would occasionally challenge, Deborah Cook demonstrates that their critiques of our current predicament are complementary in important respects. Among other things, these critiques converge in their focus on the historical conditions-economic in Adorno and political in Foucault-that gave rise to the racist and authoritarian tendencies that continue to blight the West. Cook also shows that, when Adorno and Foucault plumb the economic and political forces that have shaped our identities, they offer remarkably similar answers to the perennial question: What is to be done?

Download or read book Self Publishing Guide for Independent Authors written by Anthony Ekanem and published by Anthony Ekanem. This book was released on 2016-10-17 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you have always dreamed of being a writer, you can live your dreams by writing your own book and then self-publishing. Self-publishing is the way that many writers today are choosing to get their book out to the public. Self-publishing today is not the same as it was years ago when you had to spend thousands of dollars to publish your book. You can self-publish a book for as little as $500 when you choose a good self-publishing service online. The first thing that you need to do is to know your genre. The one rule of writing is that you should write about what you know. If you have a specific genre that you read, chances are that this is what you will want to write about. Take a look at your interests and the type of books that you read before you decide on your genre. Your book should never be just about making money - it should be about something for which you have a passion. There are many different genres available in both fiction and non-fiction. Before you start your book, have a plan of what it will be about and the genre it will fill. You need to have a specific genre when you are writing a book so that you will be able to market it properly. Some books will cross genre lines - such as paranormal and romance. Some books will fit neatly into a specific genre. It should be clear what the book is about to the reader so that they will be interested in what you have written enough to buy the book. Most readers have types of books that they like to read and tend to stick to one or two genres. If you are writing a non-fiction book, there are also genres. You need to make your book stand out among the rest in a way that will set it apart from other books of the same genre.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During a tough economy, when traditional publishers are tightening their belts and accepting fewer authors, printing less books and spending less on promoting books they've already printed, a writer's dream of becoming a published author doesn't have to end--or even be put on hold. Unpublished and published authors alike learn valuable tips to successfully and profitably self-publish and market books from the updated second edition of The Economical Guide to Self-Publishing: How to Produce and Market Your Book On a Budget written by 24-year veteran publisher Linda F. Radke, owner of Story Monsters LLC, a producer of award-winning traditionally-, partnership- and self-published books for all ages. Authors that follow Radke's expert advice will get their work to readers faster, while maintaining creative control--and making more money! "There used to be a taboo about self-published books, but not anymore," says Radke. "I have personally consulted many authors on the path to publishing, getting their books into major bookstores and distributed by major distribution houses, as well as garnering them distinguished industry awards. The secret is in creating a quality product and knowing the ropes, which I reveal in detail in The Economical Guide to Self-Publishing." While Radke's manual gives writers the nuts and bolts of publishing, such as copywriting, acquiring an ISBN, editing, typesetting, printing and distributing, etc., in an easy-to-digest manner, it doesn't end there. Readers also receive an invaluable arsenal of conventional--and sometimes unconventional--methods for marketing, promoting and obtaining free publicity.
