Joe, you must keep Jane Dystel really busy. She isn't even lsietd on the contact list for DGLM.And her partner, Miriam Goderich, doesn't extend the courtesy of answering her emails, such as the following, which I sent December 4of last year:Dear Ms. GoderichSeveral months ago I read with great interest--on both your website and Joe Konrath's blog--about exploration into how DGLM can be of assistance to authors who self-publish books in digital format. We are truly rushing into a new era of publishing, with different opportunities and different needs, and DGLM is very astute in addressing these changes as opportunities instead of pretending they will go away. (Look at what happened to Eastman Kodak Company just a few years after digital photography was introduced.) I've recently published seventeen of my titles with Amazon.com in Kindle (MOBI) format and Barnes & Noble in Nook (EPUB) format--please see the attached list. These ebooks are professionally edited and designed, and feature professional covers. Although I've already received several good (and a couple of very strange) reader reviews on my books--in particular, see the reviews on the Amazon.com catalog pages for A Visit to Madame Wu's, Tastevin, and The Murderers--I am fully aware that publishing the books is only a beginning. If my books are to become commercially successful, they need to be properly marketed--but I lack the time, knowledge, experience, and contacts to do the necessary job myself. Many ebook authors (e.g. Konrath, Hocking, Locke) attribute their success to FaceBook, Twitter, and other social media--about which I'm totally ignorant. I would also like to have representation with the appropriate contacts to present my novels to the film industry. And of course I'd love to see some of my books published in print form. How we can work together to our mutual benefit------------------------------Apparently that outfit doesn't need any more business.
