<a href="http://outskirtspress.com">Publishing on Demand</a>: March 2005

About Me

Location: Denver, Colorado, United States

I have been writing since I was six, and submitting books to old-fashioned publishers since I was in 9th grade. When I discovered Print-on-Demand, I published my first book with a POD company. I wasn't very satisfied with all the work they made me do. So I started Outskirts Press -- a better way to get published for any writer, author, or blogger. Online at http://www.outskirtspress.com

Networking with other Writers

The CIPA College starts tomorrow with the Newbie College, which I will not be attending but our COO will. All the pieces are in place, our displays, our brochures, our banners, our cards. I should be picking up 100 copies of Publishing Gems today. And by should be, I mean they should be there.

Adventures in Publishing is receiving it's final layout after I completed the edits yesterday. We'll do the indexing today and tomorrow. I might not have this free version available before the college, which was my deadline, but I have the webpage up and I'm collecting email addresses of people who are interested so we can send them the free ebook when it's done. My new goal is by the end of March. The ebook will be followed by the publication of the paperback, first weeks in April. No fooling.

Books to Help you Publish on Demand

These entries are sounding redundant. But, then again, life is kind of redundant. We're still working on promoting Publishing Gems, getting it finalized, and finishing up Adventures in Publishing. We're still working on SEO and I'm considering additional thinks OutskirtsPress.net can do for us other than simply being a SEO portal site. I have a concept, but since the BOD decision not to mention strategic thoughts here that haven't happened yet, I have to keep it to myself.

The good news is that the pages for Publishing Gems and Adventures in Publishing are going to be done here in the next week or so, including the final covers for both. The final front cover for Adventures is done. We still need to do the back. We also have to made moderate adjustments to the site, since the content of the book refers to things that WILL be done. Might as well make the book accurate when it's published, don't ya think?
