So, one of the first things I often hear from people when they hear I have a book coming out is, "Who's your publisher?" There's long been a stigma to self-publishing, and until recently, it was deserved. A writer had to buy a few thousand copies to get it printed at reasonable rates and generally did so as a pet project. Anyone who wanted to reach a wide audience and to possibly make money had to find a publisher who thought their work was high enough quality to invest in. It would go through rounds of editing before ever going to the shops. A real publisher meant the writer had talent. Self-publishing just meant they had money. But. That was then. This is now. Everyone knows there have been radical changes in how books are sold.There are many formats besides paper. Bookstore chains have collapsed or moved to online only. Publishing houses rise and fall, to the point where there are few one has heard of. But more has happened behind the scenes. Publish

"Forever's Too Long" Book Trailer...

These days, books as well as movies are often advertised with trailers that use images and sound to give you an idea of the flavor of the book, as well as sharing information about genre, storyline, and availability. Allan Krummenacker was a huge help with this, doing the actual production based on music and images I chose, and a few finds of his own, but I especially like his vocal work-- since the book is almost entirely first person narration, I decided to script the trailer that way, so he's giving the voice of Rafael Jones. *And remember the book will be available on June 1st, but you can still Pre-Order an e-copy at the following links: Nook: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/forevers-too-long-helen-krummenacker/1131555250?ean=2940163217083 Amazon:   https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RSGKTDF AmazonUK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07RSGKTDF AmazonCA: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07RSGKTDF AmazonAU: https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B07RSGKTDF Smashwords: ht

But when his first couple of cases combine to drop him into deep trouble, can his sense of adventures survive? For that matter, can he? A practical man with a kind heart, he never expected to encounter supernatural evil threatening the people he cares about. "I was reading along enjoying the Raymond Chandler vibe and suddenly WHAM!
