If you already have a publisher for your book, becoming an author's place
Member will help us help you market the dickens out of it. We'll put
you on the fast track for a completelyautomated book promotional campaign for one

of...
Book Title and Description
page
Author's biography
Book cover and
author photographs
Announcement of
your book's availability date
Live "Buy Now" links
to on-line and brick-and-mortar bookstores plus Web sites selling your
book
Quick-and-easy e-mail

Additional
personalized author/book information
In
addition, author's place
Membership gives you links to reviews of your book so that visitors to your
site can see at a glance whether or not they'd like to read more.
You'll also receive a promotional article in the American
Society of Authors and Writer's SCRIBE! Media Magazine and a widely
distributed news release announcing the availability of your book to recipients
throughout the English-speaking world.
Best of all, you'll receive free promotion of your book to
all the right people for one full year--that's more than 100,000 promotional
contacts reached via conventional mail and/or e-mail to Bookstores, Book Reviewers,
Chain Stores, Book Clubs, Libraries, Weekly and Daily Newspapers, Radio and
Television Stations and Shows, and Internet and Print Magazines. Plus
we'll send out notices of your book to up to 1,000 of your own e-mail contacts,
as you desire.
We'll even notify our Bookseller contacts of your availability
for our exclusive
Virtual
Book Signing, where you can autograph dozens--or even hundreds--of
newly purchased books, all done via E-mail and AmSAW from the privacy and
convenience of your own home. It's a money-making package that simply
can't miss!
(2) The Publisher
If you don't yet have a conventional
publisher for your book, becoming an author's place
Member will provide you with a professional reviewer
who will read and evaluate your manuscript for marketability in today's
changing publishing climate. We'll walk you through changes you may
need to make; preparation of your manuscript for submission through proper
publishing channels; and landing a conventional publishing contract or literary agent of your own. And, once your book is
ready to "shop around," we'll even introduce it for you to several top
literary agencies.
