From Ariel
May 20, 2009 Newsletter #93 Hello from Ariel! In This Week's Issue:
THIS WEEK'S FEATURED CLIENT Seth Harwood Seth Harwood became an online publishing sensation when he created the Jack Palms Crime Podcase Series in July 2006. His podcast audience grew into a size-able world-wide following, gaining the attention of the San Francisco Chronicle and other media outlets. In March 2008, Breakneck Books published JACK WAKES UP and Seth’s online audience (the Palms Daddies and Palms Mommas) jumped all over Amazon.com and bought enough copies to raise the book to #1 in Crime/Mystery and #45 overall in books. JACK WAKES UP was subsequently purchased by THREE RIVERS PRESS (Random House) and will be re-released in May 2009. If you cover books in your blog and you would like a copy of Seth's JACK WAKES up or an interview with him, please login to his profile and request! THIS WEEK'S FEATURED VIDEO
