New Resource Pages: Writing, Publishing, Book Marketing

by Joanna Penn on July 28, 2010

Amazingly, this blog now has nearly 400 posts and nearly 3000 comments and I get emails every day with questions, so I thought it was time to add some better navigation options. I want this to be a really useful site for all who visit!

So, I have added a new Resources page that has links to my main content. It includes:

Writing - including FAQ like ‘How do I find the time to write?’ as well as creativity ideas, tips on how to write your book if you are just starting out, the psychology of writing and genres.

If you are writing a novel, you might like the page I have done tracking my own progress through my first novel, Pentecost.

Publishing - includes the publishing quadrant of traditional publishing, self-publishing, print-on-demand and digital publishing with ebooks.

Book Marketing and Promotion – includes author branding and platform building, blogging, social networking, podcasting, video, speaking, and other strategies including press releases, TV, radio and more.

Basically, I have found the best posts from the blog including top podcasts and included them on one easy page for reference per topic. I appreciate any comments on other questions you might have that are not answered there, and I will keep adding more info for you.

I recently self-published a book: The Gnostic Path to Spiritual Reality, which I have offered for sale on my website as well as Scribd. As yet I have not figured out the best way to receive payment for book orders, other than requesting a cheque. Could you let me know what method you use, that would make it easier for someone to purchase my softcover book.

Hi Donald,
That’s an excellent question that deserves a blog post!
A short answer in the meantime is that I use a shopping cart http://www.e-junkie.com and also Paypal which lets me receive in any currency and transfers to my bank account. I do my print book sales through Amazon & Lulu.com and Lulu pays by paypal.
I hope that helps. Thanks, Joanna
