I loved "The Watcher" and cannot wait to read this. If you haven't read "The Watcher" by Lisa Voisin yet, grab a copy NOW! And then, don't forget to read this. :) Blurb: Now that she’s found him again, all Mia Crawford wants is some downtime with her fallen angel boyfriend, Michael. But the call of duty keeps him away—from school and from her—with more demons to smite than ever. When Michael is mortally wounded by a cursed sword, Mia must perform an ancient blood ritual to save him. But the spell exacts a price. Haunted by visions of war, torture, and despair, Mia discovers the world is in more danger than she ever imagined. Behind the scenes, an evil adversary pulls all the strings.

Incentive Marketing: Benefit From Rewarding Relationships

Image
A lot has been said about loyalty rewards these days. Incentive marketing or in simpler terms, loyalty rewards seem to have struck a chord with both marketers and consumers alike.  Today, I guest post at "The Good Villain" about this and enjoyed quite a bit researching and writing about it. Want to read more? Here's the link!  I would also be blogging more on TGV than here but I would always put up a link here to let you all know about my activities up there. It just makes sense for me to group all my publishing articles at TGV and use this forum to share more of personal experiences. Hope you are ok with it. :) I hope you enjoy the article as much as I enjoyed writing it. Please feel free to leave your thoughts to help each other out!

Introducing "The Good Villain" to the world!

Image
As late as this post might be, I am here with some exciting news! After toiling and progressing with my first company, Inkspell Publishing , an independent publishing company (have I told you how proud I am of everything we have achieved in just 1 year?), I am ready to launch my dream content project - www.thegoodvillain.com  - Enabling authors to succeed! Over the last year, I realized the biggest struggle of a writer is not the writing itself but everything surrounding it. A writer is a writer because she writes. But what about the complex, ever changing publishing landscape? The fact that the authors have to swim through the myriad of information to reach the point of actual publishing is painful. As if that was not enough, mix in it a pinch of temptation called "Self-Publishing" and you have the perfect brew of author insanity. Thankfully, we have resources that help us navigate through this. Then how is The Good Villain different?  Simple. It is not. What...

Do you have one of those days when nothing seems right and all you want to do is just curl up with a book that will make you forget your woes and give back nothing but sweet love? Yeah, I have those too and when I do have them, there are very few books I turn to. One of them and of late, quite often, are books by Sasha Summers. I feel very proud that Inkspell Publishing chose to publish her. I enjoy her romance books like no other. She makes me want to dream and I think thats the hallmark of a good author. So, Inkspell Publishing has contracted her for her Red Carpet Series and I am so pleased to share a book excerpt from her the book 2, appropriately named "Hollywood Holiday". Its a Christmas treat that no romance fiction lover should miss! :) “My name’s Gunner.” His arm tightened a little. His hand rested on my back, warm and solid.   “Gunner Foster.”   “Gunner?” I didn’t look up or open my eyes, but murmured against him, “I’m Jenny.”   I drew in a deep bre...
