What’s Missing From The 2010 List of Bestselling Titles?

Just finished skimming USA Today’s list of the best-selling books for 2010, and the top sellers week by week. I’m not surprised to see Stieg Larson’s Girl trilogy topping the list, and familiar names dominating the list, like Nicholas Sparks, Stephenie Meyer, Nora Roberts, James Patterson and John Grisham. But as I quickly skimmed the list, I [...]

An Indie Pub’s Musings (AKA The Learning Curve)

Editor’s Disclaimer: I’m blogging right now on no sleep and lots of caffeine, so forgive me if I run off the reservation a little.

First Look: Southern Discomfort

I’m over the moon about the cover for LaTonya Jones’ forthcoming Southern Discomfort, a moving, hilarious and sometimes painful look at life in New Orleans post-Katrina. Since we launched, I’ve developed a gut instinct barometer for how I select works that we want to publish. It either hooks me from day one and forces me [...]

The Art of Storytelling

In some ways, I’m starting to feel like an exec at a record label–in terms of adjusted dates and nailing down our release schedule. Of course, part of this is being a newbie publisher, while the other part has been shaped by the demands of the traditional publishing schedule (which is quickly falling by the [...]

Editor’s note: That picture of Cheri is the business, isn’t it? Look at those cheekbones! Check out Cheri Paris Edwards new website! We’re close to her release date, and her site has great stuff about her, the book and the special promo we’re doing to celebrate her release. There’s a bit of pomp and circumstance for [...]
