The Importance of an Internet Presence

"Look at those thousands of books!" I said to a fellow author while visiting a book store. What's an author to do? Whether you self-published or traditionally published, your book has to get in front of the reading and book buying public. Today it's the Internet. And I am so happy to have found Theodocia at http://www.coldcoffeecafe.com. She has really helped me to get my books out there on the net in places I did not know existed. Thanks,…

It's a Business

I think what many authors tend to either forget or not realize in the first place is that publishing is a business.
