The excerpt for my book. Actually I had thought that the agency would take care of the marketing, so I can sit in the next four weeks to the main plant. But unfortunately, everything changed.
There is a sentence in my book, which reads: "For innovative ideas always comes at some point the right time, most often but someone else quickly.." Well, the agency with whom I've worked has just my own quote used to be represented for me and my book will no longer perceive it.
because there is already a couch surfer, who has written a book (was not new to me): Brian Thacker. In his work: "Couch Surfing: An adventurous journey around the world" he does describe elements of the couch surfing, but is far from the topic that I cover. For each Thacker has spent several days with his hosts and has driven far fewer countries and cities in a long period of time. So we can certainly assume that the experiences I made during my trip so far unique in the world, significantly different from Thacker. And I know that my experience was very unusual - I've not all given up on this blog.
has also shown me the agency two other titles that deal with the "world travel". Pretty depressing if it does not work right away. I have my first line as a precaution even if two people I trust to read. Perhaps this is simply the quality of my writing. But the first chapter was very well received by readers. One consolation for me.
What remains to me now? Well, there are two other agency contacts that I could to get into the boat, but somehow I feel more and more confirmed in their thoughts, the marketing of my book to take over. The downside: It costs an awful lot of time. Time that I have not really, I must also work hard for a living. The advantage of an agency, however, is that they (usually) have the necessary contacts with publishers and have their percentage of the proceeds of a special interest in the best marketers have the work.
I will make my weekend probably more thought to how to proceed with the book. What do you think? Own market or contact new agency?
Kind regards, Daniel
