What Writers Need to Know About Publishing

Jerry Simmons will be joining us on Writers in the Sky Podcast June 6th, 2008!

DID YOU KNOW THAT. . .

…there is a difference between a writer and an author. There’s also a difference a between a published author and a successfully published author and it has nothing to do with publishing method?
…publishers are signing fewer and fewer titles and authors these days?
…there are several imprints, but only a few big houses. Who owns the big houses?
…large retail booksellers have such power that they can dictate terms such as the right to purchase an author’s book for 55% off retail and retain the ability to return any unsold books for a full refund?
…Amazon.com doesn’t want your book if you didn’t publish with Booksurge?

Jerry D. Simmons, the author of What Writers Need To Know About Publishing, is coming to Writers in the Sky podcast today on June 6, 2008 to share his experience and help authors understand what goes on inside major publishers. Jerry has worked for 25 years for Random House and Time Warner Book Group—both major New York publishing houses.
