Career Strategy
Book Marketing: the Day That is Different for Your Career Strategy
The first step of any process is one that fiction writers use in every story: The Day That Was Different. That’s the turning point event that moves a character toward the central conflict. In order to turn your book or book idea into your primary business, you’ll have to make the decision that Today is The Day That is Different.
Do you find your current circumstances satisfying?
· Months or years spending blood and tears on a manuscript then handing control of it to strangers who have no passion for it besides a bottom line
· Hours spent creating and tweaking proposals
· Spending thousands of dollars on writers conferences on a thread of hope that you will catch the attention of an editor or an agent
· Applying for permission from publishing gatekeepers so the world can benefit from your expertise
· No input whatsoever into decisions ranging from cover design to advertising dollars and marketing strategies
· Royalty checks that range from $0.25 to $1.50 per book sold—minus reserves against returns
· A bookstore shelf life for your work of 4-6 weeks
How much better would it be to:
· Take control of your career in every facet—no more contract restrictions or asking permission
· Make direct contact with the people who need your message most—elevating you from a distant author to a trusted teacher
· Have free reign over your material to put it out in many formats—to reach learners whether they are auditory, visual, tactile, or traditional
· Have everlasting availability of your work—no more backlists or Out of Print signs
· Create an entire body of work from your one book or book idea—with products ranging from reports ($7-$97) to training courses ($500-$1500) to private mentoring and consulting ($5,000-$10,000)—no more buck-a-book royalties for you!
· All this without traveling for speaking engagements or enduring another endless book signing
You can take charge of your writing career by taking your focus off paper and ink and taking your work online. With Internet services ranging from $10-$40 per month, an online approach is so affordable and you need no college degree in Internet marketing to get there.
The good news is that you can follow both paths outlined above and be successful. Do you already have a book in print? Examine your options and move ahead within our contract boundaries.
Are you marketing a manuscript? Step back and define your end goals for that information. If you are looking for the prestige of seeing your name on a big publisher’s release list, sharpen that proposal and get it out there. But if you want to have a wider impact on individuals and make a living while you are helping them, consider your options. Today could be The Day that is Different for you.

12 Drummers Drumming $6.99 Played out on an international stage. Casey Collins, a U. S. Foreign Service officer, is thrown into a maelstrom of agony when she learns a New York bound flight from England exploded soon after takeoff, like a grim Lockerbie Two. Casey fears that her lover Stefan Krajewski, a Polish operative for Danish Defense Intelligence, was on the ill-fated flight and promptly flies to Europe to learn the truth. But she is swiftly embroiled in a twisted series of events that paint her as a terrorist conspirator and a suspect in the airline bombing. Discredited by her own State Department, pursued by the FBI, wanted by Interpol, Casey is a fugitive whose only protection is a small band of skilled agents operating outside of the law. With her career and credibility in ruins, Casey has only one chance to bring the malicious mastermind behind the bombing to justice before he can massacre any more innocent people. Setting herself up as a fake mediator for U. S. interests, she conceives a dangerous strategy for gaining access to her target. Hurled into a relentless, death-dealing mission, she senses a multi-leveled web of deception tightening around her, forcing her to rely on people she neither knows nor trusts—any one of whom might sacrifice her life for his own corrupt motives. In the pulsating tradition of Robert Ludlum and Helen Maclnnes comes an electrifying international thriller, a breakneck race against time to prevent a wave of airborne terrorism. Writer Diana Deverell goes behind today’s explosive headlines and takes readers on a whirlwind international chase as a lone woman stands between a diabolical terrorist and the completion of his deadly master plan. |
