I’ve been meaning to actually write an article myself over the next few weeks, but it’s getting obvious that I’m still too busy. That being said, one of the hardest parts of self-publishing or publicizing a novel is finding good images. That’s an issue I run into every time I write something (even a blog post). People need images. The right image will make or break your book. While my preferred list of free stock photo sites is listed at http://www.weareboldandcreative.com/fr

When I was trying to find reviewers for my novel Automaton, there was one thing that they mentioned repeatedly as convincing them to read the book–the blurb. It wasn’t a traditional blurb. I had heard recently that book blurb and description experimentation is a great thing and will get you noticed easily. It was easy for me–just thinking about the nature of the story gave me an idea for a gripping description. But what about when you don’t know where to start? Dana Urban fro
