Comment on Sending books to the Cincinnati Enquirer by Dallas Releford

Dallas Releford — Fri, 17 Feb 2012 04:29:24 +0000

I am an author that has lived in Cincinnati for over forty years and I have been writing since I was sixteen, more than forty years. I have published thirty of my novels under the Green Hat Publishing imprint that I created to publish my own books. I did take on one other author and his books have been doing quite well. You will find my books everywhere online as paperback and in every electronic format. My electronic books are selling better than the paperbacks. The electronic age of publishing has come. I write horror, science fiction, mysteries, romance, westerns, suspense, thrillers and even computer books. I worked for Macmillan, Sybex, Pierce Education and many other major computer book publishers for over ten years as an editor, technical editor and author. I worked on over four hundred books. I also wrote dozens of technical articles and sold them. You can find my books on Barnes and Noble, amazon.com, createspace.com, smashwords.com, BooksAMillion.com and a thousand other sites. It would be wonderful if my local paper would do a review of some of my books. That would have helped a local author make more sales and help a lot. Unfortunately, that is not the case and many papers are doing the same thing. Getting a good review is one of the most important marketing things an author can do. I wouldn’t call myself an author if I had only self-published, except I have exceed all that. With my own publishing concern, I am author, editor, publisher, marketer and many more things. Perhaps the Enquirer is better off reviewing reality television or something else more important such as sports.

Comment on What to include on author websites by Mario

Well, that’s certainly a “stealthy” way of going about promoting a novel. Word of advice from someone who’s learned the hard way—people don’t like it when novelists use backdoor marketing.
