I am happy with my current publisher, a small, specialized house. But the publisher and I are not happy with the American economy. To remain financially stable, my publisher created a subsidiary company. This company publishes books if they meet criteria and if the author pays for printing. In return, the company maintains inventory, fills orders, and pays royalties. According to the executive director, the subsidiary company is not a print-on-demand company. When I spoke with her recently, 10 manuscripts were ahead of mine, and she said she would not get to my book for months. But I'm senior citizen and grandmother, and do not have months to wait. So I contacted a print-on-demand (POD) company...

The Shocking Truth About the Truth
It is a known fact that there is much information in the world opposed to our knowing, loving, and understanding the truth. We can go into any library or bookstore and discover stacks and rows of popular books purporting themes and schemes to discover hidden, esoteric, and or selfish practices that by which we can manipulate the world, other people, and materials for our own deceptive, devious, and liberal practices, thus, thwarting, stunting, and slowly choking the breath and life of the spirit to an impassable ennui.

What Thomas Carlyle said about Muhammad?
Muhammad before his Prophethood Up to the age of forty, Muhammad was not known as a statesman, a parson a spokesman or a lecturer. He was never seen discussing the principles of metaphysics, beliefs, moral principles, ethics, law, politics, economics or sociology. His Pagan people knew that he possessed an excellent personality, pleasant manners and He was well known as an honest and a trustworthy man. His people used to call him the trustworthy honest man. Nevertheless, there was nothing in his manner of life that would make his people expecting something great and revolutionary from him in the future. Muhammad after the age of forty At the age of forty, the Angel Gabriel revealed unto...
UFO Interest And Or Speculation
I was asked by a friend not too many years ago if I believed that life existed on other planets, and if so, might there also, be life in other solar systems and universes throughout the galaxies. I thought about the question and then rephrased it in my mind according to what I thought was being asked of me. "Is there the possibility of human life on other planets within our solar system other than earth and therefore also, beyond?" I responded gingerly to that question without reservation. Life is everywhere. If we consider the act of movement and intelligence as signs of life, then life is everywhere and in everything. My dad, Thomas Pomeleo, Jr. many years ago said to me that for anything to exist...
"The French T. S. Eliot" Paul Valery And "the Mind Of Europe"
1. "The Mind of Europe" The equally modernists T.S. Eliot and William Carlos Williams represent two diametrically opposed but mutually dependent philosophies of history, in other words, they represent two related definitions of the word ‘Modern'. To try and understand this we must go deeper. It is interesting to turn to a metaphor by Nietzsche, which served as kind of his legacy to Modernism. The metaphor is "the mind of Europe". Nietzsche perceived a psychological pattern in the history of European culture, and therefore he thought Europe had a ‘mind'. Freud, at nearly the same time, would borrow similar pattern as a construct while structuring psychoanalysis; analytic therapy, in fact. In...

Post by (Christian Louboutin Schuhe) August 2010 New York (CNN) -- A film student suspected of stabbing a New York cab driver after learning the driver was Muslim was described Thursday as someone who worked to build bridges across religious and ethnic boundaries. Those who know Michael Enright, 21, a film student at the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan, are "shocked and dumbfounded" by his arrest, said Robert Chase, the executive director of Intersections International.

The Low Cost of Wholesale eBooks
Wholesale e books are the most efficient and affordable type of quality books available in the publishing world today. A single hardcover book in an average bookstore can run anywhere from twenty to thirty dollars a piece. This is an astronomical number when you consider that a wholesale e book generally costs the same or less than the price of an average paperback edition of the same book. This bundled with the fact that four out of five households throughout the world have a computer and Internet access, is resulting in the decline of typical bookstore sales, and is likewise resulting in a climb in e book sales.

Self Publishing - Is It a Waste of Time Or a Viable Alternative?
There are those who would have you believe that there is only one direction to go in. You are either a talented writer and you get published by a main stream publisher or alternatively you are an untalented wannabe and your only hope is to self publish. If you take the second route you will find yourself scorned by those who took the first route as not being good enough to make it in the real world. And for those who took the road less traveled, they often see the publishing establishment as being opposed to supporting new or niche authors. Nonsense. The truth is a lot more complicated than that. It always is. The world is full of gray areas that connect us to the black and the white, waiting in...
Brainstorming Children's Picture Book Ideas
When I speak to writers' groups and writers' classes, the questions I hear most often are about writer's block and how I come up with my ideas.

But think about how it might play out negatively for your child rather than you. For instance: let's say your child insists...

People Hear What They See
After returning home form a speaking engagement in New York, I wanted to relax a little and flipped channels on the TV until I came to a movie called "Beyond the Sea." My intention was to just watch and enjoy the movie and just release all the tensions of work and travel. It was time to veg-out and not think. Then - boom - it happened. A line from the movie hit me like a thunder bolt: "People hear what they see." "Beyond the Sea" is a movie about the life of Bobby Darin. Darin was a singer and actor from the 50s and 60s. Darin was part of the so-called crooner-style singers such as Tony Bennett or Frank Sinatra. He had a very successful career that included many hit songs, two Grammy Awards and a...
Using the Two C's in Writing Your Newsletter

Rich writers understand that writing a book is only the beginning, not an end in itself. They are often marketers first and writers second. Marketing may sound like a dirty word especially to literary or academic writers. I understand that. I used to feel the same. But let me ask you this. What's the point writing a book if you can't sell the darn thing? If you really want to make a successful career as a writer, you can't afford to ignore marketing. What I recommend - if you haven't done it already - is to think about 'joint ventures' to sell or promote your book. Don't be put off by the business jargon - this just means looking for other people who can help sell and publicize your book for you. So...
Understanding Self-Respect
Do you have a difficult time being nice to yourself? Do you treat yourself with respect at all times? Do you allow others to treat you in a condescending manner? Do you put up with verbal or psychological abuse? If you answered any of these questions in the affirmative, you probably have low self-esteem. And if you have low self-esteem you probably don't respect yourself. Self-respect and self-esteem tend to go hand in hand. Self-respect usually is to respect for yourself, your character, and conduct. It also means to have proper respect for yourself as a person. Self-respect has very little to do with what you do and mostly about who you are. When you have self-respect, you usually are honest...

Report Writing - How to Format a Business Report
Introduction Report writing is a time consuming business so it is a great shame if, having devoted all that time to writing your report, the quality is such that hardly anyone can be bothered to read it. Quite frankly, most report readers do not actually read all the report; they are too short of time. You might as well know it and accept it -- that is normal. They only read the parts that interest them. Frequently these are the summary, the conclusions and recommendations. Of course, some readers do need all the details you so carefully included, they are specialists, but most do not. Most readers just need two things: that the information they want is where they expect it to be so they can find it...
