Maybe you would like to ask around and perhaps shop around. Many would also suggest getting an agent which could take SO long for them to sit down and actually notice what you have there and believe me, we are not just talking months here but years.

Hey, congrats! Not everyone has the courage to face the publishing industry even if their literature is highly recommended for public consumption. Because you already have your materials, the next thing you might decide on doing is to find a publisher who will be your retailer, publisher, editor and distributor at the same time - which is of course not that easy to find.

Now considering that there are so many publishers already always place in mind that your book is your work and that no one should be telling you what to do with - it should be up to your discretion how it should be published, printed and marketed.

Good luck!

Authors and publishers have been using online video to build engagement with readers and to find new ones. With traditional book publicity opportunities and store signings on the wane, having an online strategy is a necessity.

These videos reside on destination sites, on publisher sites, on author pages, and on social networks.

At the Mediabistro eBook Summit this week, I caught up with Jill Bauerle, Executive Producer and founder of New York-based start-up called Stackedup.tv, which is producing and distributing author videos.

A big player in this field is Emeryville, California based TurnHere.
