Murder by Modem by Chris F. Fotheringham

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

"Murder by Modem" is a literary first -- an e-book of the Internet, by the Internet and for the Internet. The plotline quickly evolves into a meta-fictional mindbender when a dozen chat room writers become the prime suspects after the mystery they concoct mirrors their own agent’s real-life murder. On the eve of the book’s online launch, renowned New York book agent Dana Jester is dead, a nationwide manhunt ensues, and the clock is ticking. The stakes couldn’t be higher for Moria and Blake … [Read more...] about Murder by Modem by Chris F. Fotheringham

Interview with Author – AFN Clarke

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

AFN Clark

Author Bio: I’m fortunate to be the author of the bestselling nonfiction book CONTACT, which was serialized in a British newspaper and made into an award winning film by BBCTV. That launched my “official” career as a writer and I have never looked back. I write mainly fiction these days, as I am passionate about creating different worlds in which my readers can lose themselves for a few hours - or days! I love to write different genres - politically charged thrillers, suspense and intrigue, … [Read more...] about Interview with Author – AFN Clarke

Getting the first line indention right in Word – Guest Post by John Chapman

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

Take a look at some professionally printed books. Examine the first line after a chapter heading or after a text break. Notice how it’s not indented? Now look at the work of many indie authors and you’ll find few use the same style. Many are not aware of this convention. Others don’t know how to implement it – especially in an ebook. It’s not something I’ve seen discussed widely and it’s not obvious how to implement it in MS Word. If you read Smashwords style guide they state it shouldn't be … [Read more...] about Getting the first line indention right in Word – Guest Post by John Chapman

An Overlooked Satisfaction of Self-Publishing a Book – Guest Post by David Anderson @CSUnderdogBooks

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

That manuscript I had kicking around for years made me feel like a failure. It took me a long time, and an enthusiastic leap into the self-publishing world, to understand that it wasn’t the rejection of traditional publishers that made me feel that way. I’d been seeking something much more elemental than approval. I wanted my manuscript finished. I mean really finished. I wanted it to be a book. Traditionally published writers gain something that, until recently, was not accessible to other … [Read more...] about An Overlooked Satisfaction of Self-Publishing a Book – Guest Post by David Anderson @CSUnderdogBooks

All Hail the Test Readers – Guest Post by Colleen Oakes

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

All Hail the Test Readers It's out there right now. People are reading it. My beloved first fantasy novel. People are reading it. This is terrifying. It's not out out yet, but my test readers have it, and there is bound to be some lovely, skin-flaying reviews that make me feel raw and naked all over again. At least it will be from friends this time. I'm doing things different this time around. My first novel, Elly in Bloom, is doing fantastic, so much better than I expected or … [Read more...] about All Hail the Test Readers – Guest Post by Colleen Oakes
