Just attended the BookExpo America Convention in NYC where my 2009 new book was awarded a gold medal in the Health category from the Independent Book Awards. It was beyond fabulous. A once in a lifetime event. There were 2 days of education everything from a "pitch blast" - a little like speed dating (we had 3 minutes to pitch a new book to agents of impressive stature), to how to use today's electronic and networking options. The many seminars focused on the fact that what we as book writers really want is to deliver the content in whatever format people prefer to read it in!
Please let me know if you think providing an ebook format or a download by subscription is something you think I should start providing. I could also offer the option of an ebook while the beautiful new paper book is going snail mail so you could get started reading it.
I rubbed shoulders with some best selling authors like James Patterson and John Irving and Greg Morgenson and also many Independent book sellers, writers and all the outstanding publishers both large and small out there.
