Consider entering them in the National Indie Excellence Awards contest, for independently published books. I just won an award with them for my children's book, Ballad of the Rag Man, and now bookstores have a new reason to stock it.

Gretchen, Work with a publisher and learn the ropes. I suggest contacting my son, Dr. Kent Gustavson, owner of Blooming Twig Books (NY, NY) www.bloomingtwigbooks.com and see if he could use you in his company. Cynthia Gustavson

Hello everyone,
I am a speech-language pathologist with a passion for writing and editing. How can I begin a career in editing and
publishing? Is it recommended that I return to school and take courses?

Hello Sister, I want to share the Lord's Movie with you. See if you want to be invovled in what could be the greatest soul winning movie of our generation or e-mail me your number so we can talk in Christ Terrance (Songedge) Proverbs…

thanks great news Brenda.
The first two books I co-authored in the 1990's were used as texbooks in my own courses so they were sold in my university bookstore. However, my 2007 publication, Rise and Fall of the American Empire, is self…

I LOVE this idea! Currently, I have three books published; however, they are considered self-published. Therefore, getting them into bookstores is too risky because I'm unknown. My fanbase is growing tremendously, but not fast enough for the…

I found your suggestions to be excellent. The key to getting your book into the public eye is taking it to them. The energy needed is considerable, but it is pretty much the best way to make it happen unless you have a huge PR budget and a famous…

Hi everyone, My book, A Child's Grief: Surviving the Death of a Parent just landed in Jan. It's on Amazon, B&N and Borders.com. I'd like for it to be in local bookstores. If you have addresses, I'll contact them and ask if…

Hi, Cynthia--thanks for the advice! I am already connected to CASA and to the two shelters in my area, plus I have three librarians who are holding book discussions featuring my book and me. ALl of this is wonderful support, of course, and it is a…

One Question I have is whether its best to focus on internet bookstores such as Amazon or the traditional "brick and mortar" stores? Apart from my personal sales to friends and family and stocks in my university bookstore, I have depended…

Cindy, try hooking up with the domestic violence network in your area and have a fund raiser for them, donate part of every book sold to them. Then try see if that org can sponsor you on a larger network, statewide etc.

Hello fellow writers;
I do have a book out, a novel based on a true story. It's called Ask Me No Questions. It's about a teenage girl who falls for an guy claiming to be a CIA agent. They marry and, you guessed it, he wasn't what he…

- Hi Cynthia, I did check out your son's website and I saw your books there. If you would like me to review any of those, let me know, and I'll be happy to do so. Your son seems to publish chapter books. I did not see any children's picture books. Do you know if he would have any interest in publishing children's picture books? I am working on a manuscript for a chapter book, so I may still contact him once that is done. Thanks again for telling me about him.
