WHOOOOOO HOOOOOOO!!! I'm going international!!! Oh wait, no I'm not. I mean, my books are sold overseas now BUT its not because of my publisher. You would think that MY publisher would want my best interest in mind, since it would translate into more sales for them. Guess not. Here is the latest letter of PROMISE from my publisher. I cant wait for my contract to be up.
Dear Author:
PublishAmerica will submit your book for translation into a foreign language!
PublishAmerica books have already been translated into an array of foreign languages that include Spanish, Greek, Korean, Swedish, and Icelandic.
We will now submit your book for review to the world's number one international publisher, Bertelsmann, which owns publishing companies in numerous countries and sells books in just about every country in the world, in all major languages. They are headquartered in Germany, not far from where the Frankfurt Book Fair takes place.
We will submit not one, but up to five copies of your book to the attention of their foreign rights reviewers, so that they can pass copies around as needed. We will alert you immediately as soon as they show interest, as we have done with other authors whose books piqued translation interest. Since PublishAmerica is not affiliated with Bertelsmann, we would be very proud to see you become yet another translated PublishAmerica author!
Here's how we do it:
If you want to have books on hand, order now, and receive a 50 pct discount!
We will ship your books to you, and we will donate an EXTRA up to five copies
to Bertelsmann's foreign language reviewers, at no cost to you.
Go to www.publishamerica.net, find your book, click on it, then add to cart, indicate quantity, and use this coupon: Foreign50. Then click Recalculate and finish the transaction. Minimum volume is 9 copies.
In the Ordering Instructions field, if you have a special foreign language
in mind that you'd love to see your book translated into, write it down,
and we'll pass it on.
Full-color and hardcovers excluded. Offer expires this weekend on Sunday night.
Thank you,
PublishAmerica Author Support Team
