This week has seen two new authors come along who want to publish books. The first is an interesting book by a local author who's book is about using the principles of Buddhism in Life Coaching - not a new idea but this guy has a particular take on it which makes it fascinating.
The second book is on Tudor Roundels - effectively table mats from the 15th century. These are beautiful things and the author has been reaser hing them for the last 20 years.
What is interesting is finding out how much you actually know about something without realising it. Talking to these two authors about getting in to print I find that I now have experience of the whole process from editing, through design to printing and marketing! I am not sure how many authors have this, I guess I am not unique, but when you try and explain it to someone it really brings it home.
Anyway hopefully we should get the first book to print this week for a end of January launch and the second book is due out on the 1st of April!
