We almost always do book trailers for our authors. We have a publicist who is happy to send out copies to reviewers or blogs that might interview you. And we will book a launch or a signing for you if you want one. This is all standard procedure for our authors, and the advantage of being at a small press.Casey Shay Presshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14954724154056796110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5046080427894573933.post-50743970785881555572011-07-19T17:57:16.453-07:002011-07-19T17:57:16.453-07:00Winning the contest means that we will publish you...Winning the contest means that we will publish your chapbook both as a physical book and as an electronic version and place it in the distribution system so that it can be bought anywhere.

You will also earn royalties on those purchases--as we want to encourage our authors to take them to readings and poetry conferences and make additional money on them if they can! If the bookstores and distributors are going to make extra money--so should you when you do it yourself!Casey Shay Presshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14954724154056796110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5046080427894573933.post-17966455110329590312011-07-02T11:15:40.499-07:002011-07-02T11:15:40.499-07:00Contest sounds wonderful.
