The World of Book Publishing 4.0

Publishing has entered yet another phase; a world where the author is completely responsible for the success of their book. Publishing houses have turned into printers and distributors. Everything else is up to the author. Rather than working together for the success of both, authors and publishers not only work apart but often at odds with one another.

This approach to publishing is a blessing and a curse for the author. On one hand, you are left alone to navigate the journey to success, however you define success. On the other hand, there are more avenues open to help authors promote their books and get them to readers. Combining both of these issues with little stress and expense is the challenge.

Welcome to Extreme Diva Media & Book Publishing 5.0

At EDM, we define authors as Independent Business Representatives, business owners with a company of 1 and a product that is their message. We help these unique business owners clarify their message and determine the many forms their message can take: books, presentations, blogs, websites, articles, podcasts, video and more. The goal is to find the most effective and inexpensive ways to share their message with their market. Our goal is to provide them with the tools, technique and training to successfully run their business.

One way we acheive our goal is publishing magazines and books. While we have a number of established authors as clients, we enjoy working with new and first-time authors. Our appraoch to business is not traditional. We know our way is not for everyone. However, if you are ready to take ownership of your career, your business as an author, then consider working with us.

If you have questions about our company, writing or publishing, feel free to contact me. I enjoy working with authors, and speakers, whether they are our clients or not.

It is an exciting time to be an author but only if you are ready to accept the challenge. Close your eyes and jump!
