Here are some gems I learned from Blurb:
1 For the self-publisher, consistent behavior is critical; not lofty goals.
2 Since 2006, attention is the currency being traded.
3 When I process a book, I will publish it in 3 forms for 3 different budgets, eg. a graphic novel in hard cover, soft cover and magazine format.
4 Build a platform, develop visibility, credibility, a playful voice, a persona.
5 Primary on your website, begin with what action do you want people to take?
6 Have professionals review your book.
7 Enjoy seeing the Blurb personnel you have met through emails for the last 3 years.
8 The Make-Shift Society is a safe and open venue for security, caterers, gentle sharing and individual networking. The Bluberati and guests get 5 stars: Jane Friedman, Amy Holman Edelman, Craig Morgan Teicher, Brenda Van Camp, Daniel Milnor, Miral Satter.
