Introducing April Hamilton—writing on challenges for self-published writers

By Robert Nagle

imageLater today TeleRead will feature a longish piece by indie author & publisher April Hamilton about the consolidation of the publishing industry and what this means for self-publishing authors.

April has written several Indie Author  guides about how to publish and promote your own novel. Most notably, she recently published (in PDF form)  IndieAuthor Guide To Publishing For The Kindle™ With Amazon’s Digital Text Platform™ And MS Word™ 2003 Or Higher (PDF). She has been selected as a featured Booksurge/Createspace  author for BookExpo 2008 and blogs about Indie Publishing.

Here’s an author interview she did with Valya Dudycz Lupescu on ABNA Books about her latest book, Snow Ball (”a dark, comic mystery, similar in tone to the Coen brothers’ movie “Fargo”) and Adelaide Einstein (which she describes as “hen-lit –comic fiction about a middle-aged woman having some kind of life-changing experience”).  PDF Samples are here.  She also did a podcast with WritingCast about her recent fiction. She sells print versions of her novels on Createspace and e-book versions (PRC, PDF, Kindle) on her own Web site. (Read Amazon.com reviews of Snow Ball and Adelaide Einstein.)
