    “I Feel”: A Big Heart Kids E-Book

    Posted by admin on January 6th, 2010 and filed under paperback books | 17 Comments »

    We’ve started working with Big Heart Kids to help produce a series of audio and video children’s books… Here’s the first one: “I Feel.”

    In 2005, the first Big Heart Kids book was written by Tessa Court, a mother who wanted to teach her toddler about how to express his feelings.

    Once published, a concept was born — to create a series of paperback books, audio books and dvd’s to help young children explore the world from their view points. The ultimate goal of the series is to help young children establish self confidence by being able to express the range of experiences and feelings they encounter every day.

    My wife Kelly did the VO, and I produced the additional audio that accompanies the story. For more great books for little kids, visit…

    (PS: Love to hear your feedback on this first one… Please rate & comment!)

    Dan Poynter – How To Write Your First Non-Fiction Book

    Posted by admin on December 20th, 2009 and filed under fiction books | 10 Comments »

    Self-Publishing Guru Dan Poynter explains and educates new writers on how to write publish and promote their first book.

    Dan Poynter fell into publishing. He spent eight years researching a labor of love. Realizing no publisher would be interested in a technical treatise on the parachute, he went directly to a printer and “self- published.” The orders poured in and he suddenly found he was a publisher himself.

    In 1973, he became interested in a new aviation sport, couldn’t find a book on the subject so he sat down and wrote one. After four months of writing and intense research that took him from coast to coast, he delivered the manuscript to the printer. So far, Hang Gliding has sold over 130,000 copies-a “best seller”!

    Continuing to write, Dan has produced more than 76 books and revisions so far, of which some have been translated into Spanish, Japanese, Russian, British-English and German. Over the years, Dan has developed a system of writing that makes it all so easy and fun. His books are loaded with facts and figures and contain detailed inside information. They are always up-to-date because he revises them before going back to press. Dan has sold millions of his books, including several best sellers, for ten of millions of dollars in sales. Many of his books sell at the rate of 10-20,000 copies per year, every year.

    For many years, Dan ran Para Publishing all by himself. In fact, he was often billed as the world’s largest one-person publishing company. As a one-man show, an author/publisher who handled all the writing, publishing and promotion, office management and shipping himself, Dan is in the best position to advise a first time self-publishing author who is on a limited budget. Today, Dan has staff, a number of products and services (books, reports, tapes, disks, seminars, etc.) and a large suite of offices with a 360 view of the mountains and the Pacific Ocean.

    Dan has traveled to more than 40 counties and he has even skydived into the north pole. He has written several technical books on parachutes and popular books on skydiving. When you have your own business and control your own product, you can pursue your dreams.

    Dan’s work for publishing was recognized by the Publishers Marketing Association when they gave him the Benjamin Franklin Award. He was given the Irwin Award for the best electronic promotion campaign by the Book Publicists of Southern California. He is a past vice-president of PMA.

    Dan Poynter’s seminars have been featured on CNN, his books have been pictured in The Wall Street Journal, and his story has been told in U.S. News & World Report. The media comes to him because he is the leading authority on book marketing, promoting and distributing.
