1. VaBook Festival: The Business of Book Reviewing

Here are the Greatest Hits of what Washington Post Book World deputy editor Ron Charles said during the program I hosted last Friday, "The Business of Book Reviewing: Changes and Challenges." You can see and hear moderator Bethanne Kelly Patrick (at left) and author/reviewer Katharine Weber (at right), and hear one comment by me (explaining "trade magazines").



I'm too busy getting ready for my move to NY this week to write my own post about the festival, so read author & consulting client Clifford Garstang's comments here.

3. Oops

I accidentally double-booked myself. My next phone-in seminar will be on January 22--not the 21st as originally announced. (I've corrected my website & the post: Phone It In with Bella!)

6. Hold the Phone for Book Promotion 101 TeleSeminar

In early June I did three "Promoting Like a Pro" phone-in seminars for the Authors Guild. They went so well that I decided to do them all by my very own self. So a little while ago I set up the first seminar through FreeConference. Here's the scoop:

Book Promotion 101 TeleSeminar
Date: Sunday, Sept. 28
Time: 3-4:30pm Eastern (12-1:30pm Pacific)
Price: $90
Registration limited to 10.

You get:

  • The lowdown on promoting your book like a pro--the same as in my all-day workshop.
  • Q&A session.
  • Individual 15-minute follow-up consultation.
  • First hour of additional consultation for $125 (a $25 discount).
Interested? Send an email to: blog (at) bellastander.com, with subject "TeleSeminar."

This will be up on the Book Promotion 101 website ASAP.
