So much too read & so much to do!
Greetings Everyone!
For the last two weeks I've been courted by a
business, who's business it is to obtain reviewers
for authors/publishers. Here is there explanation after
I questioned their motives...
"ABR is a B2B. We are similar to a publicity agent
who is hired so the author or publisher can utilize the
agent's database of contacts and thus network
THROUGH that agent to the end users. Although ABR
is much more, think of us as something of a dating
service for the publishing world. We match
forthcoming and new titles with reviewers and
commentators (and readers) from the digital, print,
and radio world." This may sound good, but the
author still has to write up his own info (pitch) in
order to attract any attention.
I did however take a peek at all the books they had
listed and found there were well over 300! Details for
each book revealed how many hits, as well as
requests. The majority I looked at had over 15 hits
& "0" requests!
Obtaining reviews is not that hard, and if you're going
shell out cash you may as well hire a publicist who
can do a whole lot more than toss your book into a
fish bowl!
Next week I'll cover how to query production
companies.

Author green lights Cholera film
After denying Hollywood for years, Gabriel García
Márquez agrees to sell the rights to his 1985 novel
Unswerving defender of Fidel Castro and Latin
American literary patriarch he may be, but Gabriel
García Márquez appears to have finally succumbed to
Hollywood's call, signing over the film rights to Love in

The Los Angeles production company Stone Village
Pictures is reportedly paying the Colombian Nobel
laureate between one and three million dollars to
make a movie of what producer Scot Steindorff
recently termed "the best love story ever told, next
to Romeo and Juliet".
Despite selling millions of books around the globe, the
76-year-old novelist, who is battling with cancer, is
said to be worried about the financial future of his
lifetime partner Mercedes and their two sons Gonzalo
and Rodrigo.
Fox buys rights to "The Pacific Solution"
Twentieth Century Fox is understood to have paid

US Teens Can Buy The Entire Russian GDP by
2006
According to The U.S. Teens Market, a new report
from Packaged Facts, by 2006 12- to 19-year-olds in
the United States are projected to have a buying
power that will top the $182 billion gross domestic
product of Russia, increasing a staggering 27.7% to
$190 billion between 2001 and 2006 due to higher
earnings from jobs held by teens, as well as a jump in
family expenditures on teens.
"Teens are increasingly in control of purchasing
decisions, both for themselves and within families,"
said Don Montuori, Acquisitions Editor of Packaged
Facts. "Since 1999 we have seen jumps in the
economic influence of teens' preferences in almost
every product area, including clothing, personal care
items, technology and entertainment."
As the buying power of teens increases, the
percentage of teens that come from multicultural
backgrounds is also projected to grow. According to
the report, by 2006 non-Hispanic Whites will only
account for 60% of the total teens population and
the Hispanic population will constitute the largest
minority group. Not surprisingly, an increasingly
diverse and wealthy population of teens has caught
the attention of marketers who are quickly moving to
position their products as appealing to a multicultural
audience.

BOOK REVIEWS
Alicia Maldonado: A
Mother Lost by Ardain Isma
Publisher: iUniverse; (January 2004)
Genre: Non-fiction
ISBN: 0595303218
Hardcover / Paperback: 286 pp
$17.95 / $27.95 Canada
Rating: Highly Recommended
Pay attention to mind over matters!
August 25, 2004
Based on a true story, Ardain Isma tells the turmoil
surrounding one family forced to flee Havana, Cuba to
escape political unrest during the Batista Regime of
the 1940's.
Miguel Maldonado along with his wife, Elena, and their
two children, Mario, and Alicia settle in Haiti.
The Maldonado's are wealthy real-estate owners and
all adjust to this change except, Alicia. She is quite
homesick and a loner who has trouble learning the
language, as well as adapting to Haiti's diverse
culture.
Alicia and their neighbor's son, Richard, of mulatta
descent become fast friends at a young age. Their
friendship grows to love and they eventually marry.
The mixed couple overcomes racial and cultural
differences, and blessed with two daughters. Then
Richard dies, and Alicia falls into a deep depression.
Sometime later Alicia remarries a devout Haitian
Military Officer, who is divorced with two children of
his own. This blended family then has two additional
children. But suddenly, Alicia is slapped in the face
with her husband's infidelity. She is unable to come
to terms with Georges unfaithfulness. Along with her
youngest son, Jean-Marie, Alicia disappears without a
trace.
Twelve years go by, before fate intervenes, and
Alicia is face to face with the family she walked out
on.
I thoroughly enjoyed this tear-jerking, tragic drama of
life gone wrong by the choices we make. Moreover, I
commend the author for his depictions of raw
emotions displayed by the characters. BRAVO Mr.
Ardain Isma!

Light on Snow shines!
August 16, 2004
During an evening walk in the woods, Nicky and her
father find an abandoned baby left to die in the
snow. This single event begins a healing process
avoided far too long by the family. Two years
before, Nicky's family was ripped apart with the death
of her mother and sister, leaving a broken man and
lonely little girl. They strive to cope. In the days
after finding the baby, Nicky is obsessed with why a
mother would leave a baby to die and one feels that
perhaps Nicky has felt abandon not only by her father
who is barely able to exist but also by her mother.
When the young mother comes to find a way to
thank them for saving her baby, she helps Nicky
begin to answer the questions in her heart and
causes the first real communication between father
and daughter. Healing begins.
Anita Shreve once again, shows her mastery of the
human emotions during extreme situations. I highly
recommend this novel as well as any other novels
written by Ms. Shreve. You will not be disappointed.

What Are RSS Feeds
An explanation of "6 Ways to More Sales During A
Slow Season," specifically for questions
regarding: "#4 - For crying out loud get that news
feed up."
What Are RSS Feeds?
In short: a new way to generate content from your
website and it's called RSS.
RSS also known as rich site summary or real simply
syndication, arrived on the scene a number of years
ago, but was only recently embraced by webmasters
as a means to effectively syndicate content. RSS
Feeds provide webmasters and content providers an
avenue to provide concise summaries to prospective
readers. Thousands of commercial web sites and
blogs now publish content summaries in an RSS feed.
Each item in the feed typically contains a headline;
article summary and link back to the online article.
Benefit to the Webmaster
As the web has become more crowded webmasters
have been striving to provide fresh and up to date
content for their website visitors. Many webmasters
have discovered they can easily utilize the
information in RSS feeds to provide fresh web
content.
RSS feeds are composed in XML, which is a very
simple markup language. Similar to HTML, XML uses
tags to identify fields. Webmasters can easily parse
the RSS feed and dynamically create web pages that
contain headlines and summaries. The feeds will
continuously update, supplying a steady stream of
automatically generated fresh content.
Benefit to Web Surfers
The beauty of RSS is that readers can quickly scan
headlines (titles) and read articles of interest.
Because the information is condensed and provided in
a single location users can generally review more
information in a shorter time frame. Additional
information is only a click away. Best of all readers
choose the feeds they wish to see, there is no spam
with RSS. If you are not completely thrilled with the
content appearing in a feed simply remove it from the
newsreader. The technology is a pull technology
rather than push technology, meaning the content is
not forced on the consumers, who pull the content
they want to see.
RSS feeds can be viewed in a news aggregator or
reader, which constantly updates and shows unread
feeds. I found the functionality of the newsreaders to
be similar to a simple email client. Consumers
generally enter the URL of any RSS feeds that
interest them. Topics with a common theme can be
segregated into related groups.
Finding Topic Specific Relevant Feeds
In order to find feeds that provide niche information
users can search Feedster. Feedster is a rapidly
growing news search engine that indexes information
contained within RSS feeds. Searches for topic
specific feeds can be conducted and feeds can be
retrieved for syndication.
RSS has effectively standardized the format for
content delivery and has effectively defined the
accepted standard for content distribution and
syndication. RSS will likely rival email as a means of
content distribution in another few years. The shear
simplicity makes the technology very appealing.
If Content is King, then surely Relevance is Queen!
There has been a lot of to-ing and fro-ing in the
search engine world of late and there are lots of
conspiracy theories as to why these things happen.
It is easy as a webmaster to get caught up in these
webs of intrigue.
You get email notes about them, you view so-called
experts' thoughts on bulletin Boards - hey you
probably even read things in newsletter articles!
The big driver for webmasters currently appears to be
content and link building.
While link building is important I don't believe it makes
Queen. Maybe a Prince. Content and links DO go
hand in hand but, without relevance, the Kingdom is
doomed. Sorry I will stop the analogy now! :-)
If your site is about finance, then finance content is
best supported by finance link exchanges. Relevance!
If your site is about finance, then finance content
supported by casino link exchanges from a PR8 site
while in the short term may help, but all the signs are
saying this is not a long term strategy.
Okay, so what is the best strategy?
Keep EVERYTHING relevant. It is that simple.
Make sure that you only swap or link to sites that are
relevant to the content on your pages. Yes I am
suggesting link exchanging on pages of your site not
a links page.
Links pages seem to be being abused. There are
rumors that pages called links, resources or partners
are not passing page rank. You could be wasting your
time building links that are not giving you any
benefits!
Delivering relevant links from relevant content is the
future.
With a content-poor site it is difficult, you have to
add link pages or create a links directory. A five-page
site will need to add 10 or 12 good link pages to
compete and even then with algorithm changes, this
may not be prudent.
Having a site with 400 pages means you can easily
add 3 links per page, so you have 1200 link options
straight away.
Hopefully this explains that relevance runs a close
second to content.
Always bear in mind when writing content that
relevant links will not only boost your search engine
rankings, but you will also add a service to your
visitors.
How to get free publicity to your website?
Write and submit Articles to EZines and Newsletters.
This is probably more effective then all other things
combined. It costs almost nothing and brings BIG
results. I said almost because there can be some
time involved.
There are millions of ezines and newsletters and
online publications. And guess what - every editor is
always, always interested in good articles. The best
thing is to write about something that you are very
familiar with. But it should be at least something that
really interests you and you can write as you learn
about it. So, pick a subject and do some research on
the major search engines. Note whatever seems
interesting and all the links that you find. Especially
note those resources with free or more detailed
information.
Now you need to come up with a good headline. The
best bet is to scan through some newspapers. What
catches your eye? Take your subject and merge that
with the ideas for your headline.
Then just sit down and write an article using your
knowledge and the notes from your research. Use
plain English. No fancy words and no self-promotion.
If you subscribe to a couple of ezines and read the
articles, you will quickly get a feeling. Add your
contact information to the end of the article (Byline).
Here you may also offer a special or a free
something. Brief and not more than six lines. But do
not include a direct sales pitch or an affiliate link.
Your potential publisher just will not publish the
article if it looks like straight advertising. After you
read your article a couple times, found and corrected
the errors, you are ready to publish it.
General announcements work. But better is if you
contact publishers directly. During your research, you
hopefully already found some publications that may
be interested in your article. You should build up your
own list of publications that reach your target
market, and submit frequently for best results. You
can even offer to write a special "first run" article for
publications that have a very large circulation. If you
master this technique you can get your name and
your website in front of 100,000 or even millions of
readers.
** A quick note here: BLP does accept articles, as
well as stories, poetry,and excerpts. Our subscriber
base is now over 3000 readers. Publishers, publicist,
producers, authors, screenwriters and directors make
up about 15% of our readers. Still there are
many other ezines and newsletters you can submit
to, below are just a few.
