GRANT OR CROWDFUNDING?
We haven't talked about money for a while. You know, the free money, the kind you don't have to pay back. What used to be commonly known as THE GRANT. There are two main reasons for that, I believe.
First, self-publishing has become more affordable, with CreateSpace being free, and ebooks being so easy to publish for little to nothing if you know how to grab a cover and format a manuscript. Self-pubbing is now affordable. Heck, it's less bother to just publish and not fool with all the paperwork that involves a grant.
Second, crowdfunding gives writers a sense of empowerment. Through crowdfunding, you can orchestrate your own fundraiser without feeling at the mercy of an invisible panel of grant judges. You can ask for as much or as little as you wish, even raising the figure midstream. You get to flaunt yourself in the crowdfunding process, which often involves video, prizes and regular updates to your supporters.
Seems that we've found ways to control our own destinies. No longer are we powerless, waiting for months to see if our grant application passes muster and qualified for what is often a small amount of money. Never thought I'd see the day that a grant is a less desirable method for an artist to raise funds, but you know what? I'm glad about it.
Just like self-publishing has released us from the gatekeepers, crowdfunding has freed us from the bureaucracy of grants. While there are still grants out there, in the same time it takes to apply and wait for the decision, a writer can set up a crowdfunding campaign, see it through, and publish the book. Hmmm. Makes sense to me.

Success Story
Hope -
I had to do some digging to find our old email exchange on this subject and am shocked that it was almost 4 years ago! If you recall, at the time I was struggling between my online writing persona vs. my professional “day job” position and career search. The outpouring of support from you and your readers (as a result of your editorial about my dilemma) was truly amazing and heartwarming. That being said, I wanted to update you on my progress – both as a writer, and in my profession.
On the employment side of things, I was lucky enough to land a paralegal job working remotely for a wonderful global software company a little over two years ago. While the lack of a commute is a definite plus, the true bonus is they are very supportive of my writing – and even champion it. After many years of fits and starts, I finally released my first novel INDIGO just a month ago. Upon hearing of it during a recent business trip, my bosses were the first to jump online and purchase it. I
never would have thought back in 2010 when I initially wrote to you in despair that I would find such a happy place to land, let alone finish a novel.
I know that I am truly blessed to have found such an employer, and am grateful every day to have found them. Please don’t think I’m writing to plug my book – because I’m not. I merely wanted to let you know personally that a professional balance has been found, and can be found by others - if they’re patient enough, look hard enough, and are willing to put themselves out there.
I also wanted to thank you again for your words of encouragement all those years ago. I was truly at a crossroads with my writing; and your responses, and those of your readers really made a difference in my life.
Kind regards, Amy L. Boukair Author of the romantic suspense novel, Indigo http://www.amazon.com/dp/149440978X/ www.amyboukair.com

Digital Book Formatting Step-By-Step
By Jenna Harte
Formatting can be one of the most challenging and tedious parts of self-publishing. It can go very wrong, very easily, and result in bad reviews. It becomes trickier when you realize there is no standard. Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing wants it one way while NOOK Press wants it another. Even so, there are some aspects of formatting you can do across all platforms.
E-readers come in all sizes from smart phones to tablets to computers. Readers can adjust the size of the font. These variances result in some formatting options not publishing well, so you shouldn’t use them. These options include:
1) The bullets or numbered list feature of your word processing program. Instead, type the number or bullet (i.e. -) and write your text.
2) Columns or tables. If you need a column or table, use a screen capture program like Jing to create a graphic and use that instead.
3) Tab key. Set your paragraph intent tab using the margin ruler or in the page layout of your word processing program. Don’t touch the tab key for any reason.
Once your manuscript is complete, you’ll want to remove the background code that can mess up the formatting on an e-reader. Your manuscript may appear perfect on the screen, but when it’s uploaded, you’ll find extra indents, additional lines and wonky formatting. Here are the steps I take to prepare my manuscript for digital publishing.
1.Highlight the manuscript (make sure it’s saved) and copy all of it.
2. Open Notepad or another text editor and paste the manuscript in it. All formatting, bold, indents, italics, etc. will be gone, but so will be any wonky code.
3. Create a new blank document in your word processing program. Turn off any auto correct and auto format features, usually found under “Tools” or “Options”.
4. Set your style and margins. In Word, the style feature sets font, spacing and size.
5. Copy the manuscript from Notepad or your text editor, and paste into the new blank document.
6. Reformat the document with the little extras:
- Insert photos or graphics you had in your original manuscript;
- Change chapter titles to a header (for table of contents generation);
- Add chapter breaks per the publishing platform's instructions. Kindle asks for “Page Break”, but NOOK Press asks for “Section Break” in manuscripts saved as a .doc.
- Add bold or italics. Avoid changing font type or size though (except when turning chapter titles into headers).
- If you justify the first line of the chapters left and/or use a drop cap, you can add that, as well.
7. In MS Word, go to the paragraph icon in the paragraph group in the top menu. Turn on “Show/Hide” and check the codes in the manuscript. Acceptable codes you may keep are for paragraph (paragraph symbol), space (dot) and page (narrow dotted line) or section break (double dotted line). You shouldn’t have the codes for hard return (left turning arrow), tab (arrow) or column break (big dotted line). To get rid of an unwanted code, put your cursor behind it and hit delete. The text will shift
(i.e. deleting hard return code will move the text to the line before it) and then add the correct command (i.e. hit return should show the paragraph code).
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word-help/show-or-hide-formatting-marks-HA010102250.aspx Open Office's word processing has the paragraph icon as well. In Pages (Mac) it's "View" -> "Show Invisibles"
8. Save your new manuscript.
9. Make the final platform-oriented changes and save in the publishing platform's recommended format. Kindle asks for the document to be saved as “Web Page Filtered” (.htm). Smashwords accepts .epub and .doc (but not .docx). NOOK accepts .doc, .docx, .txt, .rtf, .htm, .html, or .epub, but .doc manuscripts need to use “Section Breaks” for chapter breaks.
10. Upload your book, preview it on your e-reader to make sure the formatting is right, and then start selling!

JOBS
EDITORIAL ASSISTANT / STAFF WRITER Location Centennial, CO http://www.mediabistro.com/joblistings/jobview.asp?c=jfennf&joid=164260 --- Marzano Research Laboratory (MRL), an educational research, professional development, and publishing company in Centennial, CO, seeks a full-time Editorial Assistant/Staff Writer. This position is responsible for a wide range of administrative
duties and editorial support.
PUBLISHERS
HARBOURLIGHT BOOKS http://pelicanbookgroup.com/ec/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=37_47 --- All stories must be Christian fiction between 25,000 and 80,000 words. Action-adventure, Mystery, (cozy or other), Suspense/crime drama/police procedural, Family saga, Westerns, Women's Fiction. Harbourlight books should convey life as it is lived, or can be lived, by people of faith. Because life can be
humorous, mysterious, hazardous, and even a bit otherworldly, with angels popping in at times, Harbourlight books can encompass a variety of elements. The setting for Harbourlight books can be contemporary, historical or futuristic. They may even feature supernatural elements.
WHITE ROSE PUBLISHING http://pelicanbookgroup.com/ec/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=37_46 --- White Rose is strictly ROMANCE. Although we take all romance sub-genre, every story must have romance as a strong element and in ALL lengths. As in every romance, the focus of a White Rose story should be the conflict between the main characters. These stories encompass protagonists who may, or may not, be
spiritual at the onset, but come to realize that faith is a cornerstone of love. Protagonists should possess layered, three-dimensional, personalities. They should be people who struggle with decisions on a regular basis, using their existent or burgeoning faith to augment their growth both, together, and as Christians.
PURE AMORE PUBLISHING http://pelicanbookgroup.com/ec/index.php?main_page=page&id=69 --- Pelican Pure Amore romances are sweet in tone and in conflict. These stories are the emotionally-driven tales of youthful Christians who are striving to live their faith in a world where Christ-centered choices may not fully be understood. Plots should not contain overly hard-hitting or controversial subjects but should be
hope-filled, enjoyable reads that don’t come with a lot of excess baggage. Stories should be written in an active, engaging style that leaves the reader satisfied and smiling. Plots should focus on the love between a man and a woman who both hold God at the center of their lives and who have never been married. The hero and heroine will exhibit traditional Christian values but also should be three-dimensional and therefore exhibit flaws as well as virtues.
BOOKS & SUCH LITERARY AGENCY http://www.booksandsuch.com/ --- We are opening a new nonfiction division in order to represent a broader range of authors and appeal to a wider segment of publishers. We value openness and tolerance and this new division – General Spirituality – will address that. We are looking for books that fall into several of the so-called New Age categories. We’re open to books that may use objects such as crystals or stones
as a way to center on spirituality. While we want to avoid labels, we are willing to explore ancient practices outside of traditional Christianity. The sky’s the limit here, so give us a try.
BLUE RIDGE LITERARY AGENCY http://www.blueridgeagency.com/ --- Wish List: Romance Novellas and Romance Serials, Amish Romances, Book-length Romances, esp. historical, contemporary and romantic suspense, Cozy Mysteries (one point of view with an amateur sleuth and strong series hook), YA Suspense/Thriller, YA Contemporary. Will also consider the following genres of fiction: inspirational romance and edge of your seat thrillers. If your fiction
genre is not listed, please e-mail to see whether we are interested before querying. No horror, literary fiction, historicals (other than historical romance or mysteries), poetry, middle grade readers, scripts, short stories, children's picture books, children's young readers, memoirs, nonfiction, vampire novels, or screenplays at this time. No Scifi or Fantasy. Only genre fiction novels and romance novellas. NOT accepting ANY story with a vampire.
