Marketing Ideas for Indie Books and New Authors

The marketing process is one of the most important phases in book publishing. It not only enables the author to make a name for themselves but to also promote their work. If well strategized and executed, it could lead to a lot of successes to both the author and his/her books. Some of the very good marketing ideas for new books and indie writers include the following:
Paid book reviews

'Pilots On Food Stamps' Highlights

There are careers that are considered to be high in terms of value for what they can pay. A piloting career is one of the most lucrative and it attracts thousands, even though only a few make it. Ask any child what they wish to be when they grow up and a pilot will be the answer for most of them. However, the grass is not always greener as it looks in the piloting world.
This is a revelation that has been made thanks to the book 'Pilots on Food Stamps-An Inside Look at Why Your Flight Got Cancelled". It is a book that is authored by Ben Mandell.

Book Review: B Is for Burglar

This book is the second in a series of mystery novels written by Sue Grafton.
Kinsley Millhone is a single young woman who has a private detective agency. Business is often quite slow for her and she has to pay her bills even though she doesn't always like the cases that she has taken on for investigation.
In "B is for Burglar," Kinsley is approached by a rich woman named Beverly Danziger who wants Kinsley to find her sister, Elaine Boldt. Ms. Danzier claims that she is motivated by the fact that she needs her sister's signature on some documents in order to claim a small inheritance.

JONES Versus GENESIS - Preface

This series of articles provide a chapter by chapter review of The Serpent's Promise - British evolutionist professor Steve Jones' latest attempt to belittle the Bible and delay the inevitable demise of Darwinism.
The book is dedicated to the memory of his great grand-father, Rev William Morgan, who, we are informed, was a Christian preacher for some forty years. I wonder what Morgan would think of his great grandson's book and the fact that he has been voted Secularist of the Year?
The Preface brings us immediately to a very sad state of affairs that seems to be illustrated by Jones' own life - namely, the 'crisis in creationism', the phenomenon whereby young people growing up in Christian families and taught to believe the Bible, and Genesis in particular, than move on to college and become disillusioned when they find themselves unable to answer the questions thrown at them by evolutionists. Tragically, many of them then lose their Christian faith, some even becoming militant atheists. This nonsense must stop.
