NARR8, an Interactive Content Channel

Wednesday, November 13, 2013 by Sabrina Ricci

NARR8 is an innovative, new(ish) content platform and mobile app. Founded in 2011 by Alexandr Vashchenko, NARR8 was inspired by Vaschenko's love of comic books and entertainment media. "The name 'NARR8' came from the idea of combining story telling, or 'narration,' with the number 8, which, aside from being an auspiciously lucky number in certain parts of the world, also … [Read more...] about NARR8, an Interactive Content Channel

Turning Your Blog into an E-Book

Tuesday, July 30, 2013 by Sabrina Ricci

  I like to experiment, and recently I decided to try turning my blog into an e-book. Or more specifically, uploading my blog to Kindle as a subscription service. There are many ways to turn a blog into an e-book, and in the future I may play around with some of them. But for now, the Kindle version was simple enough that I could set it up in a few minutes, and for … [Read more...] about Turning Your Blog into an E-Book

The Shifting Landscape of Book Reviews

Wednesday, June 19, 2013 by Sabrina Ricci

Originally published on HuffingtonPost and IndieReader. Read the full article here. With few exceptions, major news publications do not review indie books, even though more than 235,000 titles were self-published as of 2011. This lack of coverage in traditional media outlets, however, has not stopped indies from their rise. To the contrary, according to a recent New York … [Read more...] about The Shifting Landscape of Book Reviews

E-Book Review: Golden Biker

Monday, December 17, 2012 by Sabrina Ricci

The Golden Biker is a tongue-in-cheek book, written by Alexander von Eisenhart Rothe. There is a lot of dark humor, which involves Nazis, drugs, shady characters, and a lot of adventure. Told through multiple points of view, the story is follows (at least) four main characters who, through a series of coincidences, end up traveling together in India. They are searching for … [Read more...] about E-Book Review: Golden Biker

You Should Self-Publish

Wednesday, August 8, 2012 by Sabrina Ricci

Self-publishing is the new business card, or so I'm told. I think this works especially well for non-fiction books, which authors can use to show their authority and get speaking gigs and other jobs. It can also be a great cocktail party conversation starter. What do you do? "I'm a novelist," sounds pretty impressive.  … [Read more...] about You Should Self-Publish

Book Review: T-Rex by the Tail

Tuesday, August 7, 2012 by Sabrina Ricci

No, T-rex by the Tail has nothing to do with dinosaurs, and yes, being a dinosaur enthusiast, I did initially make that mistake. But I quickly got over the lack of actual dinosaurs and got sucked in to this story that chronicles a family with four boys and how they grew up under “Jurassic parenting.”   The book opens with Karl Patton, a tough but loving dad who is … [Read more...] about Book Review: T-Rex by the Tail

Blurb

Monday, November 1, 2010 by Sabrina Ricci

Self-publishing books, once considered almost taboo, or at the very least desperate, has evolved into something fun, easy, and even professional. Blurb is a perfect example of this. Based in San Francisco, the company recently had a pop-up store in New York City. Located at 60 Mercer St. in Soho, the store was open from Oct. 21-31, and allowed customers to take part in … [Read more...] about Blurb
