Seven Gods Cover Art – A Poll

I need your help!

So I’ve been working away to prepare The Seven Gods of Luck for simultaneous release as an ebook, a paperback, and an audiobook. Great fun! It’s almost ready…

August 5, Larkspur, CA. Jack Beritzhoff (93) didn’t start writing until he was ninety.

Stillpoint Digital Press:

So, remember the news I’ve been hinting at?

The Human Face of Digital Publishing

The ebook explosion has promised a new relationship between authors and their readers—one that is more immediate and personal. And yet writers looking to take advantage of this new medium find themselves in a familiar bind: either seek to publish through a traditional publisher and receive pennies on the dollar, self-publish, or use a service that is happy to publish your book for you (for either a fee or a percentage of sales)–but without providing any editorial services.

Stillpoint Digital Press is an ebook publisher that provides a human touch. We are an experienced publisher of electronic and print books, ready to help you convert your manuscript or your print volume (whether in- or out-of-print) into a vibrant, exciting digital book. We will help you edit, create a cover, design, and sell your book.

Stillpoint Digital Press: The Human Face of Digital Publishing

It’s still in the early stages, but I’d love you to check it out and tell me what you think!

Testing, testing…

So, I’m creating a new website. And it’s got blogs and stuff. And I thought I’d crosslink it to my Livejournal (and thence, hopefully, to my Facebook account.)

Why, you ask?

Well… Um…

I can’t tell you yet. But I will. Soon. I promise. 🙂
