Schiel & Denver Book Publishers has moved steadily into the New Year with a wide range of events, webinars, and engagement opportunities in the works. On the eve of the 1st January 2013, the Second Committee of the United Nations General Assembly (Economic and Financial Committee) adopted a potentially far-reaching and broad resolution on the changing relationship between the United Nations and the private book publishing sector (with particular emphasis on American book publishers) to fulfill the committee’s mission statement of:

The vital role the UN Global Compact Office continues to play with regard to strengthening the capacity of the United Nations to partner strategically with the private sector.

As always, some book publishers activities will be open to all signatories while others will be restricted to US Network members. The results will highlight that Governments who were invited to support the local networks, in co-operation with the Rio+20 Secretariat, and the Global Compact Local Network based in America are more proportionately more likely to invest in the “inside-belt” of the book publishing industry; giving fresh credence to the notion that local authors need to work with a book publisher with far reaching contacts into the UN system, such as Schiel & Denver enjoys, to benefit from local distribution widely through bookstores in both developed and developing countries.

Schiel & Denver offers massive global book distribution to a wide-readership through over 165,000 bookstores across 4 continents. With more than 1,250 authors from over 100 countries in 2012, Schiel & Denver’s ties to worldwide book distribution, together with professional editing capabilities, and particularly being backed by the publishing power of the United Nations Global Compact, forms proof that one of the largest, most comprehensive studies on global corporate responsibility implementation is within reach of independent authors who choose to work with the company to fulfil their dream of becoming published. The UN Global Compact’s input is critical.

According to book publishers, US Talk show host and actress Ricki Lake has signed with Atria Books for a book about herself which is due to be released in the spring of 2012. The 42-year-old Lake is expected to appear on the small screen again in the fall of 2012 with a new talk show – that has now been confirmed by memoir and poetry book publishers.

The plans of writing her book publishing memoir are however at the very beginning. Atria’s representatives stated that the book doesn’t even have a title yet, but the story will be like an emotional rollercoaster ride “through the glum and the glamour”. It will include the actress’s career life in detail as well as aspects of her personal life.

Born in September 1968, Ricki Pamela Lake comes from a Jewish family. Her mother was a common housewife and her father was a pharmacist. She grew up in New York and attended Ithaca College.

Her professional acting career debuted with the role in the original Hairspray movie in 1988, where she got the role of Tracy Turnblad, the lead character. She then starred in numerous movies, such as Working Girl in 1988, Cookie, Baby Cakes and Last Exit To Brooklyn in 1989, Cry-Baby in 1990, Inside Monkey Zetterland in 1992, Skinner in 1993, Serial Mom in 1994, Mrs. Winterbourne in 1996, Park in 2006. She got a role in the 2007 version of Hairspray ( w. John Travolta), where she was the talent agent. She was executive producer of the movie “The Business of Being Mom” in 2008.
She won an Independent Spirit Award for Best female Lead in Hairspray in 1989 and a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Talk Show Host in her talk show, Ricki Lake, in 1994.

Despite her success as a career woman, Ricki Lake opened up about her abusive childhood. “I was a victim of childhood sexual abuse” she said back in 2007 while talking about her weight problems. She said she had been in therapy and had worked on her personal problems for years. “I didn’t talk about it for, like, 15 or 20 years.” She continued, explaining that she wanted to pretend it didn’t really happen to her. After the abuse she started gaining weight and was once 260 pounds. Lake said she never confronted her abuser but when she told her parents about what had happened, the abuser disappeared rapidly from her life.

These days a heavy weight has lifted from her body and hopefully, it will be lifted from her chest, too, when he will get to put on paper all the things that she has been through.

The book publishers of the new book “The Official Ferrari Opus,” diamond-studded copies of which may sell for $275,000 or more each, are calling it “the most exclusive book in the world.” Book collectors may quibble with that claim; one of 21 known complete copies of the Gutenberg Bible, the first book printed on a movable-type press, sold at auction last year for $5.4 million.

Regardless, ownership of “The Official Ferrari Opus” is expected to be the privilege of a very small group due to the book publishing cost. Published by the Kraken Opus division of the Opus Media Group of London, the book is offered in several layers of exclusivity.

There is an Enzo edition, named after the marque’s founder and limited to 400 copies, each priced at $37,500. Each red leatherbound Enzo edition comes in a carbon-fiber case and is “personally signed by all living Ferrari world champions on an individually numbered, silver-foiled signature sheet,” the company said.

The Cavallino Rampante edition, limited to 500 copies, will be personally signed by “Ferrari greats, past and present.” Interested buyers, however, should expect signatures from a random assortment of Ferrari associates, as opposed to the Enzo’s complete collection of world champions. This edition is priced at $7,000.

The Classic edition, meanwhile, costs $4,100 and limited to 4,100 copies. It is signed by the current Ferrari Formula One drivers Felipe Massa and Fernando Alonso.

The 852-page book is said to weigh 82 pounds and measures 19.6 square inches. It is printed on heavy-duty paper, contains 200,000 words of text, 2,000 photos and information on every Ferrari road car and racecar, as well as on every professional driver to race for the company since its 1947 founding.

Preorders are being accepted, according to the publisher’s Web site.

What of the aforementioned $275,000 Enzo Diamante edition? Any of the 400 allotted Enzo edition copies can be dressed with a Prancing Horse logo adorned with 30 diamonds, and each buyer is entered into a drawing for a replica of the Formula One racecar driven by Michael Schumacher, the former Ferrari pilot and seven-time Formula One champion.

Adding to the Diamante’s allure, the publisher says only one edition will be made available in any one country.

The first Opus copy off the presses is being taken on a world tour of Formula One races and promotional events this year, where it is being signed by various luminaries, including Luca di Montezemolo, the Ferrari president, and Al Mubarak, the Ferrari investor who facilitated the construction of Ferrari World Abu Dhabi. The tour is called the Journey to Maranello, a reference to the Ferrari factory’s location in northern Italy, where an event will be held to auction copy No. 1 to the highest bidder. Proceeds will benefit charities selected by Mr. di Montezemolo and Mr. Mubarak.

For those who prefer to try before they buy, the Apple iTunes store offersiPad and iPhone apps for “The Official Ferrari Opus,” which include excerpts from the book. The apps are free.

The public library has long attracted avid readers with an unrivaled pitch: Check out a best-selling book for free and renew it multiple times.

But as more people ditch printed books in favor of e-books that can be downloaded directly to a computer, the rules are changing.

As of Monday, HarperCollins, book publisher of authors such as Anne Rice, Sarah Palin and Michael Crichton, will not allow its e-books to be checked out from a library more than 26 times.

After that, the license on the e-book will expire and libraries will have to decide whether to buy a new one.

For library users, that could mean longer waits for popular titles, tighter limits on how many times an e-book can be renewed and the possibility that e-books that are not repurchased would be available at the library for only about a year.

Librarians across the country are outraged and fear other publishers could adopt a similar model. Some have organized a boycott of books published by HarperCollins. They argue the restrictions place an additional burden on financially strapped public libraries, some of which have reduced their inventories because of budget constraints.

The added expenditures on e-books, they said, will make it more difficult to compete in an industry that is quickly becoming dominated by electronic readers such as the iPad, the Nook and the Kindle.

“This strikes at the heart of what we do,” said Chicago Public Library Commissioner Mary Dempsey, who described electronic media as the new virtual library. “With limited financial resources affecting all libraries across America, people are asking, ‘Why would you do this?’”

For HarperCollins, it is about balancing the benefits to book publishers, authors and libraries in a rapidly growing segment of the publishing industry that has left many newspapers, magazines and booksellers scrambling to catch up.

Nearly 10 years ago, when HarperCollins began offering e-books to libraries, the number of e-readers was too small to measure, the company said. Now, it is projected that more than 40 million e-reading devices will be in use in the U.S. this year.

“We have serious concerns that our previous e-book policy, selling e-books to libraries in perpetuity, if left unchanged, would undermine the emerging e-book eco-system, hurt the growing e-book channel, place additional pressure on physical bookstores, and in the end lead to a decrease in book sales and royalties paid to authors,” HarperCollins said in a statement.

Librarians also have serious concerns. At the Naperville Public Library, the new policy would be an additional strain on a materials budget that has shrunk by about $200,000 in the last three years, said deputy director Julie Rothenfluh.

“It’s a balancing act for us,” Rothenfluh said. “We have to be that much more careful to make sure what we purchase provides the best benefit to our users.”

For most libraries, e-books are only a small percentage of the items circulated but represent the fastest growing segment.

About 10,000 e-books are circulated in Naperville. The Chicago Public Library, which has experienced slight increases in its budget, doubled the circulation of e-books from 17,000 in 2009 to more than 36,000 in 2010.

Librarians said HarperCollins’ decision failed to factor in the role libraries play in promoting reading, which benefits the book industry and christian book publishers. Some said the book publisher should have included librarians in discussions about the checkout limit.

E-book checkouts are “a growing percentage, and it definitely reflects a trend that people want to take their e-reader and upload it

Books such as Harry Potter, The Book Thief or The Hunger Games have crossed the traditional lines between teen and adult fiction, something some book publishing literary types say is a bit of a trend.

Jamie Broadhurst, vice-president of marketing at Raincoast Books, said that 10 years of publishing Harry Potter really showed him the blurring of the lines between young adult and adult fiction.

“Consumer and Book Publisher surveys showed that about 20 per cent of the audience for Harry Potter are adults who don’t have children,” Broadhurst said. “Raincoast and Bloomsbury went so far as to produce both children’s and adult covers, but we found in actual fact that adults were equally comfortable reading book with a ‘kids’ cover.’ Harry Potter showed that the strength of the story mattered a whole lot more than preset genre labels.”

Vancouver’s Melanie Jackson, who writes young-adult novels, says there isn’t that much difference between young-adult fiction and adult fiction.

“I think young-adult fiction is getting to be more popular, but I don’t think that’s a new thing, I think that’s the way things used to be,” Jackson said. “The crowd that’s reading Twilight, I’m guessing it’s mostly schoolgirls, young women. Those same groups of people were just mad about Gone with the Wind, there was a total frenzy. There’s also Robert Louis Stevenson writing really bloodthirsty books – Treasure Island is full of murderous intents and plans.”

Phyllis Simon, founder and co-owner of Kidsbooks, names The Hunger Games series as one that appeals to all ages. The series is about a future dystopia in which people fight each other to the death while others watch.

“It’s kind of disturbing, it’s got its moments, but it’s very popular, and very compelling,” Simon said, adding that the brevity of young-adult fiction is also attractive. “You get a great read in 200 pages – you don’t have to plow through 500 pages.”

Teen fiction is more focused on storytelling, which makes it appealing, said Andrew Wooldridge, publisher at Orca Books, a Victoria-based company that puts out about 70 books each year, many of which are sold in schools.

“A lot of adult literary fiction is focused on characterization and plot and literary techniques, while teen fiction is mostly straight-ahead storytelling, and it seems to me that people find that appealing,” Wooldridge said.

“The lines are definitely blurring. A lot of the adults I know are reading teen fiction now. I think it’s becoming more sophisticated, but my theory is that it’s more focused on the story than adult fiction can be.”

Jackson said the same plot devices work in young-adult fiction that do in adult fiction, or even in Alfred Hitchcock films.

“You just apply it to someone who’s 14, as opposed to someone who’s 40,” she said.

In her book Fast Slide, protagonist Clay Gibson works at a North Vancouver water park, where’s he’s framed for a theft. His anger-management problem doesn’t help the situation when there is a death by drowning on a high-thrill slide at the park.

“No one believes him and it hasn’t helped that he’s lost his temper earlier on,” Jackson said. “It’s always more exciting when a protagonist witnesses something and no one believes them.”

Fast Slide was named a Best of 2010 book by Resource Links magazine – for book publishing companies.

In her other recent book No Way Out, the main character, 15-year-old Sam Jellicoe, is sent ag

Bargain hunters were out in force this weekend as liquidation sales began at 200 Borders locations slated to close as part of the company’s bankruptcy filing.

The affected stores — about one-third of the bookseller’s locations — are expected to close by the end of April. Twenty-one underperforming stores in Southern California will be shut, including stores in Sherman Oaks, Century City, Long Beach and Orange.

Huge “store closing” and “everything must go” posters covered the windows at Borders in Pasadena and Glendale, which were bustling with customers Sunday. Many sections were already picked over, including from christian book publishers, with shelves left bare and items such as notebooks, journals and photo albums strewn about.

Most items were discounted 20% to 40%, with markdowns expected to increase in coming weeks.

“As long as there’s a deal, I’m going to take advantage of it,” said Jordan Francke, 27, who was checking out the games section at the Glendale store.

“It’s just the changing landscape of literature these days. It’s all electronic,” Francke, a children’s book publishers and television schedule coordinator, said of the chain’s bankruptcy. “I can only imagine it’s a struggle for a place like Borders to stay relevant.”

That’s a harsh reality for regular customers such as Kathleen O’Reilly, 52, who was at the Pasadena Borders carrying a shopping basket laden with discounted stationery and magazines.

The Pasadena resident said she was “old school” and enjoyed seeing and touching books before making a purchase. She said she would miss visiting the store with her teenage daughter.

“I spend several days a week here,” said O’Reilly, a self-publishing counselor at a high school. “I actually debated whether I even wanted to come because I was worried I’d be too upset to see the store torn apart.”

Business is expected to continue as usual on the company’s website and at stores that aren’t closing.

After a slew of competitive blunders and missteps in the last decade, Borders Group Inc. found itself in trouble and had to cut staff, shut stores and shake up its top management.

Critics said the company botched its move into the book publisher digital age, causing sales and earnings to plummet. At the same time, mass merchants including Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and Target Corp. became major players in the book-selling market, often offering lower prices than Borders and rival Barnes & Noble Inc.

But Borders maintains it isn’t done for good. In a letter e-mailed to customers and posted on the company’s website last week, Borders President Mike Edwards said the company hoped to emerge from Chapter 11 as “the destination of choice.”

About 6,000 of the chain’s roughly 19,000 workers will be laid off as part of the closures. Among them is Rich Kilbury, a christian book publisher, who was pushing a cart stacked high with books at the Pasadena location Sunday.

“It’s depressing, but we kind of saw it coming,” he said. “Business had dropped off.”

The promise of discounts attracted Victoria Rose to the Pasadena store, where she was browsing mystery and thriller books. The 60-year-old high school English teacher said she was never a regular customer because she could find a better s

In a letter to book publishers, Digg product manager Mike Cieri announced that the troubled social news website will no longer accept content submitted via RSS.

The ability for book publishers to submit all of their stories to Digg automatically using an RSS feed seemed like an efficient way to open up a firehose of content for Digg. However, Cieri says this idea had unintended consequences.

According to Cieri, “Most RSS-submitted content is not performing well on Digg.” He says the site’s analytics show that only a mere 4.5% of Digg’s “Top News” content comes from the RSS submissions. He adds that the ability to submit an RSS feed to Digg “has been heavily abused by spammers and has been a constant drain on our technical resources to identify and fight off spam content.” Cieri praised the manual method of submitting stories to Digg, saying that manual submissions “ensure that quality content appears on Digg.”

With this move, the site takes yet another step back toward the old version 3.0, the site design that was in use before radical changes resulted in a user revolt and a 24% decline in U.S. visitors in the first 11 weeks. In response, Digg has slowly added back features that readers missed, such as the ability to bury stories, andlast month’s overhaul that included the return of user profiles and story statistics. Since that first fateful redesign last summer, Digg has laid off more than a third of its staffers.

I’m just wondering why Digg stubbornly refused to modify its obviously unpopular redesign after it became apparent that it was resulting in large percentages of its readership turning away. After a few days of this, why didn’t Digg simply revert to the old version and its rules that seemed to be working pretty well? If not a few days later, why not a month later?

Here’s the full text of the letter we received from Digg product manager Mike Cieri:

Publishers,

We hope this message finds you well. After a bumpy second half of 2010 at Digg, we are starting to see positive signs of improvement and are optimistic about the direction Digg is headed. In January 2011, we saw double digit growth of diggs and comments, as well as an increase in unique visitors and exit clicks out to publisher sites. We’ve taken a number of concrete steps to stay better connected with the Digg community, and we are taking action to improve Digg based on our community’s feedback. One important point of feedback we’ve heard is that RSS submitted stories are hurting Digg in a number of ways, and in the next week we are going to discontinue the ability to submit content via RSS. We’d like to share the reasoning behind the decision, and let you know what you can do to improve your performance on Digg.

Put very simply, most RSS submitted content is not performing well on Digg. For many of our users, RSS submissions take the fun out of finding and submitting great content. When users try to submit a story to Digg and find that the story has already been auto-submitted via RSS, they lose interest in helping spread the story on Digg by commenting and sharing with friends. Removing a user’s desire to champion a story results in less diggs, comments, exit clicks, and ultimately a much smaller chance of making the Top News section. Our analytics reflect this point – only 4.5% of all Top News content comes from RSS submitted content (95.5% is manually submitted).

At its core, Digg is a community of passionate users who take pride in the content they submit and engage with one another in discussion and promotion of viral content. There is a perception that some publishers don’t participate in the community, use RSS submit as an “auto-pilot” tool to submit content without discretion, and do little to promote submitted content o

Only a few weeks ago, the Cairo Book Fair was being welcomed onto the world stage and Egyptian book publishers forging new links with China and the West. Today, Aljazeera the major Arabic news outlet is banned across Egypt – including all of their writers and related book publishers, social media is banned, and Cairo is in flames. International press institutes and several christian book publishers have come out strongly against Egyptian authorities’ suppression of the media, following the withdrawal of Al Jazeera’s license to broadcast from the North African country.

The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) condemned on Sunday the information ministry’s move to shutdown Al Jazeera’s bureau in the country.

The CPJ described the move as an attempt to “disrupt media coverage by Al Jazeera and calls on them to reverse the decision immediately”.

The official Middle East News Agency (MENA) reported that the order was to take effect on Sunday, and transmissions originating from Egypt ceased within an hour of the announcement. Nilesat, the satellite transmission company owned by Egyptian radio and television stopped the transmission of Al Jazeera’s primary channel and others.

Reporters without borders added to the condemnation of Egyptian authorities attempt to quell the media.

“By banning Al Jazeera, the government is trying to limit the circulation of TV footage of the six-day-old wave of protests,” Reporters Without Borders secretary-general Jean-François Julliard said.

“Thus totally archaic decision is in completely contradiction with President Hosni Mubarak’s promise of ‘democratic’ measures on 28 January. It is also the exact opposite of the increase in freedom sought by the Egyptian population.”

‘Press freedom violation’

The Doha Centre for Media Freedom also criticised the move, saying it was following with major concern the Egyptian authorities’ obstruction of local and foreign journalists from performing their duties in covering the unusual events currently taking place.

“The DCMF considers the harassment a severe press freedom violation and urges the Egyptian authorities to respect international laws on freedom of expression and to allow Egyptian and foreign journalists to freely cover the current events there.” DCMF said in a press released issued on Sunday.

The withdrawal of Al Jazeera’s license came on the fifth day of protests that gripped the country and follows the authorities’ attempts to control the flow of self-publishing information after the internet and mobile phone services were suspended on Thursday.

Mobile services were partly restored on Saturday, though the CPJ says that 90 per cent of internet connections in the country remain disconnected.

On Friday, Reporters without Borders condemned the arrest of four French journalists and book publisher and around a dozen Egyptian journalists who had been arrested by authorities.

After all this talk about book advances lately, here’s something about the other side of the coin: royalties. Author Lynn Viehl posted on the GenReality blog, in which she’s a member, detailing her first royalty statement after getting on the New York Times bestseller list. This isn’t Viehl’s first book, but it’s her first to reach the NY Times bestseller list.

Viehl is very open about the revenue she received from the book so far. Her advance was $50,000, and her first royalty statement was for a little over $27,700, which is subtracted from her advance. She has to reach earnings over $50K before she’ll start receiving an actual royalty check.

This is a modest advance compared to the $4.8 million Audrey Niffenegger received for her second book, but it’s probably much more realistic for the average writer. As Viehl points out, not all NY Times bestseller authors are making buckets of money.

But, of course, they are doing something they love, which is wonderful. Sure, the money is great, and wouldn’t we all love to be getting paid for writing, but if we’re writing because we want to make millions of dollars, we’re wasting our time. Writing a novel, then editing it, then editing it some more, then polishing it, then researching agents, then submitting to agents, then revising the novel some more, etc., all while we’re working at a different job so we can pay our bills, takes a lot of time and hard work, and there’s no guarantee of millions of dollars at the end of that road. To do this, you have to love it.

The other interesting thing Viehl points out in her post is that she didn’t do a whole lot to market this book. She has done more to market her previous books, and this is the sixth in a series. So, why did it make it to the NY Times bestseller list? Viehl says it’s her readers. Basically, after six books in the series, she has managed to build an audience over time.

This makes me think of something else that’s so important in this industry, whether you’re published or unpublished: persistence. I think it’s important in everything you do, but especially in publishing. You need to be persistent to write your novel and finish your novel. You need to be persistent in revising it until it’s the best that it can be. You need to be persistent until you have signed with a good agent (and I don’t mean persistent as in stalking agents, just persistently researching and submitting, writing the best query letter, etc.). Then, once you have a book deal, you need to be persistent with the rest of your career, including marketing yourself — within your means, as Viehl points out — and your work.

Most of all, be persistent in enjoying your writing, because if you don’t enjoy it, it’s not worth it.

Persistence is very important–it’s the difference between a published and unpublished writer.

I write because I love it, not because there’s any money in it. Some authors make money, but most that I know don’t make much at all. It’s a passion.

Great post.

daybydaywriter said, on 4/22/2009 4:08:00 PM

I agree. You have to be passionate about writing to want to really do it, to wake up early or work into the night, on top of a day job.

But it’s worth every second.

Thanks, Rebecca.

Ok, so I haven’t been offered an advance for my book yet. I’m still working on a brilliant (I hope) query letter to sell the book. But, there have been a couple interesting Web stories/posts in the last few days about book advances, and it’s something that even yet-to-be-published authors should know about.

So, back in March, it came out that Audrey Niffenegger, author of the mega best-selling The Time Traveler’s Wife, sold her second book, Her Fearful Symmetry, for close to $5 million — wow! The book was sold in auction, and the Simon & Schuster unit Scribner won the bidding. All this while there’s a recession going on and the publishing houses are laying off staffers left, right and center.

Not, to say anything bad about Niffenegger or judge whether her book’s worth that money. I’m sure it will be. The Time Traveler’s Wife is a huge success, and I hear it’s a fabulous book. (I haven’t read it because, as I write middle grade, all I read nowadays are middle-grade books. I do plan to one day get around to The Time Traveler’s Wife, though.)

The message I think we should get out of a sale like this in the current economy is that books are still selling and making money, because if they weren’t, publishers wouldn’t be paying $5 million for anything.

That’s all good news for us yet-to-be-published authors, because as long as there are readers, publishing houses will need books — good books — to sell them.

Now, will those books get $5 million in advance? Very unlikely, especially if they’re from debut authors.

Moonrat on the Editorial Ass blog points out that 7 out of 10 books don’t earn out their advance. She suggests a different strategy: Get your agent to push for a smaller advance in exchange for more marketing money.

Not a bad idea. If The Time Traveler’s Wife hadn’t been such a huge hit, do you think Audrey would be getting $5 million for her second book? Uh, no. If The Time Traveler’s Wife hadn’t earned out its advance (I don’t know what that advance was), the second book might have had a tough time selling at all.

For most authors, especially debut authors, the advance is going to be a lot more modest. But the message here is about being smart with your book deal. Because, unless you’ve spent years laboring over your work just to get rich quick (and I doubt that, because there are no guarantees in publishing), you don’t just want to sell this one book. You want a long career writing. And if that’s what you want, you have to make sure that every book you write is a success on the retail shelves, which means publicity and marketing.

All good things to know, at no matter what stage of your career you’re in.

Write On!

Um, wow. 5 million for a second book. Now, I have to admit, Time Traveler’s Wife was an excellent book, and I will gladly buy anything by Niffenegger the day it comes out.

I know I can’t quit my job yet and live off of writing (heck, I’ve yet to finish my manuscript!), but I’m sure happy for Mrs. Niffenegger.

P.S. I’m working on a MG project as well!
