Introducing...Get Known Before the Book Deal, a new book from Christina Katz and Writer's Digest Books.

Becoming visible is more crucial to landing a book deal than ever, according to agents and editors in every facet of the publishing industry. Simply churning out a book isn't enough. Aspiring authors need to develop a platform in order to get noticed. This book empowers writers to take charge of their writing careers and partner with agents, editors and publishers.

Introverts and extroverts alike will find effective and diverse strategies for growing their platform in their areas of expertise in ways that complement their own style and pace of working. From developing a readership, to increasing the odds of a book deal, to having a greater impact on book sales, this book is every aspiring writer's guide to success in the world of publishing.

Here's What Sets Get Known Apart:

• Only book that comprehensively instructs writers on getting known before the book deal.

• Start from square one—assumes no previous knowledge or experience in marketing/promotion.

• An economical approach—you don’t have to spend thousands to self-promote.

• Puts power and responsibility in the hands of the writer.

• A diverse set of strategies and methods for self-promotion (not just Web-based or for extroverts).

• An author’s elegant prose style or compelling subject matter is no longer the primary concern of an acquiring editor at a publishing house. Increasingly, publishers are looking for writers who will not only produce a few hundred pages of text, but also come prepared to be active players in the publicity process.
