Get Instant Feedback When You Publish
2011-12-12 19:07:00 For months we’ve been studying how, when and why people publish their posts, and what the common tasks are people perform afterwards. We know many of you immediately want to see what your post looks like, check for typos, and then share your post to social networks. Starting today you’ll see a much improved design for giving you feedback and supporting how you work. The first thing you’ll see, after your browser finishes telling WordPress.com you have a new post, is positive feedback your post was successful. We now notify you as soon as possible that everything went smoothly. At the same time, we’re loading your actual post to show you. Once the post loads, which can take a few seconds, you can confirm it looks as you expected. If you find a typo in your post (which can be easier to spot in the published post, than on the edit screen), you can quickly click Edit and switch back into edit mode to fix it. If everything in your post looks good, you’ll n...

An Entry for the 'Publish This Book' One-Beer YouTube Contest!
2010-12-30 13:23:00 Stephen Markley's Best Book Trailer from Michael Mann on Vimeo.Just after I got done complaining that I'm the worst at launching a viral Interwebs contest ever, I did an interview with GalleyCat, and a resourceful guy named Michael Mann (not the director of "Heat," which sucks) of Atlanta, Georgia, posted this video even though he's never actually read the book. So he's the only entry in the entire contest. Which means that unless you people get on it, he's going to win, and I'll have to drive to Atlanta to buy him a beer.This also means I've conducted the worst contest anywhere of all time ever. That's a distinction I'm actually kind of proud of. Oh, and even after several...
'Publish This Book' Reading This Thursday in Boston
2010-12-07 14:22:00 The city of Boston and I have a well-known dispute over the level of its awesomeness, Boston often claiming that it has any, and me taking the opposite side of that debate. Still, a détente will go into affect this weekend, as I will be reading at Tufts in Cambridge (this is actually Boston, but MIT somehow got it changed so people would know they are smarter and can do things like that; there's also a place called Somerville that is for all intents and purposes also Boston, and inexplicably this makes sense to everyone and is the premise for Ben Affleck's entire career). Anyhow, you should come because the English department is also getting pizza. So there will be...

Interesting Interviews About "Publish This Book"
2010-08-09 14:03:00 Reading at Porter Square Books in Boston, MA (courtesy Porter Square Books)Some people enjoy hearing authors talk about their books or reading interviews with them--I know I do. In that spirit, if you've read "Publish This Book" and do have an interest in hearing more about it, there's been a recent spate of notices and interviews for your edification. For instance, here's a sliver of a story in the Boston Globe, an interview in Psychology Today, a review at Freelancedom (from a guy who said he hated me), a blogger recounting my visit to Riverrun Bookstore in Portsmouth, New Hampshire and a blogger who gets my quote of the month when she says, "It's like Jon Stewart and the...
When You Purchase "Publish This Book" on Amazon, Add a Fleshlight
2010-08-04 13:45:00 From Amazon (I wasn't sure if I'd be allowed to put up a picture of a Fleshlight) My ex-roommate Elliott and I came up with the most brilliant joke the other day while Gchatting. Here's what you people need to do: Every time you order a copy of "Publish This Book" on Amazon, buy something really weird along with it. That way if enough people buy this same one weird thing, it'll show up under that banner that says "Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought." Right now my book is paired mostly with other books like "The Unnamed" by Joshua Ferris, "On Writing" by Stephen King, and "Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang" (I do not understand my readership either)....

Stevenson High to j-students: publish or perish
2009-11-25 17:29:00 Because I've been in the newspaper racket for decades, folks will assume that I'm on the side of the Stevenson High School students who are fighting with the administration over what they can publish in the school newspaper.I'm not. How can I say this with the obligatory amount of sensitivity so I don't hurt anyone's feelings? The newspaper doesn't belong to the students; the school is the publisher. The school pays for the printing and the instruction. The school decides what goes on in the classrooms. A publisher gets to decide what goes into his paper and what doesn't. Editors (employees) who refuse to follow policy can be disciplined and fired. That's the reality of it. If the journalism teachers...

Do You Need an Outside Office to Write, Publish and Sell Your Ebook?
2009-06-27 13:36:00 Would an outside office help you write, publish and sell your ebook? Again many variables come into play. If you are going to write and publish your ebook, chances are you only need a computer. Where the computer is located may not matter at all to you. If you need a quiet place, you may need an outside office to publish, write and sale your ebook. Some people can't write unless it is totally quiet. They can't concentrate with confusion around them.

However, writing by hand is a totally natural rhythm that you should be able to use with ease after a little practice. By adopting this method, you do not have to rush out and rent office space. Also, by making a small part of your home your ...

Publish a Book in 10 years??
2008-05-01 14:51:00 When I was reviewing my 10 year plan, my eyes went wide when I read the things that I have written because one of my goals was to publish a book!! Wow! I did not remember writing that down but it was there and I have a printed copy of it. Anyway, I have encountered several stories about great author?s struggles to get their works published. But I said to myself, maybe it would be different this time. Almost anything can be done already. So, I went to my usual pastime, surfing! And I was able to stumble upon AuthorHouse.com. It is a self-publishing company. They have been helping authors to publish their work since 1997. At AuthorHouse.com, they help authors with their publishing goals and how to achieve them. They also have a FREE publishing guide especially designed to help first time authors. Then I concluded, what I have written may somehow come to pass after all. Maybe someday I can!! If AuthorHouse.com is around, I guess self-publishing is not a problem.

Dutch director to publish purported bio of Jesus
2008-04-23 22:43:00 The Associated Press is reporting: AMSTERDAM, Netherlands – An Amsterdam publishing house said Wednesday it will release a biography of Jesus written by filmmaker Paul Verhoeven. Verhoeven is best known as the director of blockbuster films including Basic Instinct and Robocop, but he is also a member of Jesus Seminar, a group of scholars and authors that seeks to establish historical facts about Jesus, said spokeswoman Marianna Sterk of the publishing house J.M. Meulenhoff Asides: Old story, no proof, no theological standing.  Why is this even news? Note the dateline.  Would Verhoeven have the balls to publish a story about a Islamic historical figure?  Most likely not. So where are the Dutch riots?  Where are the calls to behead Verhoeven?   Why is not safe to demean Islam but safe to demean Christianity?   Is it even acceptable to note the difference in tolerance between Christians and Muslims?
