Book description
From the foreword by Maya Angelou:
"[T]he joy they promise in their prose makes me glad that I
and other writers have been willing to make good writing our aim, and
even great writing our dream."
"How do I get my book published?"
Good question. Lucky for you, publishing insiders Sam Barry and Kathi
Kamen Goldmark have laid out the blueprint for what you want - your
book. From transforming an idea into a manuscript to finding an
agent to working with an editor to marketing your book, BookPage's
Author Enablers are here to assist you every step of the way. And
they've brought some backup with original insight from literary
superstars like Stephen King, Amy Tan, Rita Mae Brown, and more.
It's everything you would ever want - and need - to know about the
industry from the inside out.
Sam Barry is a marketing and promotions manager at HarperOne as
well as an author and musician. Barry offers advice to aspiring
writers as one half of BookPage's Author Enablers team, and tours the
country as a member of the Rock Bottom Remainders.
Kathi Kamen Goldmark has worked "on the inside" of
publishing as a media escort and publicist for nearly every major
publisher. She's also the other half of the Author Enablers column and
the founding member of the Rock Bottom Remainders.
