A good author pours his/her creativity and energy into writing a book.  A ‘successful’ author squanders his/her energies in successfully jumping the many agent and publishing hoops.   ‘Successful’ authors have cheated readers of his/her best work.  And I personally don’t consider that a success.

Self published authors are the real success, even if they never recieve much renumeration for their books.  Support self published authors and thumb your nose at the book publishing industry that has shamefully let society down as they grovel for money.

Gasp! You weren’t expecting a picture to accompany that headline were you? I just enjoy reading in the bathtub: It sure beats doing it while showering. Okay, so I’m lying. I’m actually typing on my laptop but I was reading a literature book before that. But while relaxing in the bath and reading my book I started wondering why people read? I thought it worth a post.

Hypnosis is Awesome!

Why do you read? Obviously, a person reads a fiction to enjoy a story and another reads a non-fiction to learn more about the topic. But there is one more possible motivation for reading and that is one reason why self-published books have such a difficult time gaining notice. Many people read so that they have something interesting to discuss with others who have read the same literature book. To accomplish that objective, the reader has to choose a popular book, even if it is one that reviewers have panned.

So I wonder, while topping up the tub with hotter water, how could self-published authors tap into this tightly held market? The best book store shelves are all co-opted to big publishers and the online book sellers cater to showing off the best-sellers too. Giving a book maximum exposure and publicity implies to readers that ‘a book might not be any good but at least many other people have bought it too and so readers can share a commonality of complaining about what an over-hyped and poor literature book it was.

Oh well. For now, all I can do is relax in the hot water, wait idly Bye and wish This self-published Book promotion inequality will change some day. And of course I’m wet and waiting for someone to Click My Lit.

Blame It On Bangkok By J. F. Gump

Bangkok is called the ‘City of Angels’ but actually ‘Bangkok’ translates to ‘village of wild plums’. The city known by westerners as ‘Bangkok is actually named ‘Krung Thep’ and that does translate to ‘city of angels’, ‘the great city’, ‘the eternal jewel city’. Bangkok was the capital until the late 1700′s when King Rama I moved the capital to Krung Thep.

Actually if the complete truth were told, ‘Krung Thep’ is just the shortened version of the name which is ‘Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit’. This has practically nothing to do with the book ‘Blame It On Bangkok‘ and forunately, J.F. Gump didn’t name this book ‘Blame it on Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit’.

Blame It On Bangkok by J.F. Gump

A quote from a reviewer – This book has a series of stories that grip and hold your heart. It’s the best collection of short stories I’ve ever read. True, honest, warm and engaging… I only wished there were more because I didn’t want it to end. Thanks J. F. Gump, and keep ‘em coming!
