When it comes to fiction as a genre, readers primarily seek out books from authors who are already well established and have been read and recommended by other readers as opposed to Non-fiction books where readers search for books to read by the subject they are interested in. This is why for fiction writers, the challenge of reaching readers all over the world and giving their book a platform to succeed is a whole lot tougher.
This week we would like to introduce you to an award-winning journalist and the author of the best-selling fiction novel: The Rape Trial - Bidisha Ghosal. Bidisha moved on from journalism to focus on her career as an author before publishing her 1st fiction novel: The Rape Trial which went on to top the charts under the Crime thriller category on Amazon. With over 250+ reviews and avg rating of 4.4 stars on Amazon, the book continues to be one of the most popular reads in the category. Learn how Bidisha managed to publish her fiction best-seller in our latest episode of Indie & Proud.

The name Karthik Kumar needs no introduction to anyone who follows the entertainment industry in India - From starring in mega-hit movies to making people laugh their guts out with his stand up comedy, there is not much he hasn't accomplished. Karthik Kumar, however, is also one of the pioneers of the idea of an entertainment startup, way before even AIB and SnG were household names. Fondly referred to as Evam Karthik by the people involved in the theatre fraternity, he started one of India's first performing arts organization Evam and has been successfully running it for the past 16 years.

Making publishing accessible for everyone with a story to tell - this core objective formed the foundation upon which Notion Press Publishing was built. As we look back on the last few months: the pandemic, the subsequent lockdown, and its impact on the lives of the population we can't help but wonder at the increasing relevance of this core objective during what is probably the most challenging time we have collectively faced as a country.
As the world continues to adapt, we want to assure you, that we have your back. We are doing everything we can to identify and introduce affordable options to make publishing easier for you and our community of writers. Below are the various options available to you.
If you are looking to publish a book soon, you may never find a more opportune time. Kindly reply to this email and your publishing consultant will get in touch with you to help.
Did you know that it takes less than 7 seconds for a reader to decide whether or not they want to pick up a book from a shelf and read more about it? This means your book needs to be positioned perfectly to your audience in order to communicate to your readers what your book is about and why it is unique. This increases the likelihood of them picking it up.
But what is book positioning? And what can you do to ensure that your book is positioned perfectly to your market? Join us on our brand new segment - Author Spotlight, as we breakdown the process and analyze the art of book positioning with the help of a National best-seller - What the Finance.

No matter how objective you are as a writer, in order to create the best version of your book, you need a team of editors and beta readers who can add a reader's perspective and help you position your book's content perfectly to your audience. ?

I am extremely happy to see that you are interested in publishing your book with Notion Press. We started in 2012 as a self-publishing startup with the goal of democratizing the publishing industry. Today, thanks to our writers, we are Asia's largest publishing platform having published over four thousand first-time authors in just 6 years. Having worked with so many writers, we have seen both the success and struggles of authors in getting their book published.
Although book publishing has been around for over three centuries, it is still very confusing to most writers. How does one publish a book? What makes a book sell? What is the role of the author? I know all this can be very confusing. I have been there. Don't worry. Over the next few days, I will help you understand how to publish your book and sell it around the world.
In case you have any questions, feel free to call us on our numbers given below (Mon-Fri, 10 AM - 6 PM) or reply back to this email and one of my colleagues will be able to help you.?
Writers often assume that writing a book from start to finish is the most challenging part of getting it published. However, the reality is that having a completed manuscript in hand only puts you at the beginning of the long journey it takes to get a book published successfully. If you have finished writing your book and are just waiting to get it published then now would be a perfect time for you to do some prep work and build a solid platform that will help make your book a success when it launches.

Dear Jon
Everyone wants to be a successful author. Is there a pattern? Is there some kind of book that you can read to understand this mystery? It is pretty simple actually.
The #1 rule to becoming a successful author is to start thinking like an entrepreneur. This is your book business and you need to start treating it like
one. Below is a small checklist that will help you become an Authorpreneur.
The Authorpreneur Checklist:
Realize that your book is your business and you are its CEO. Going forward, you are going to be making objective business decisions. This is where most authors fail. They make decisions wearing the author's hat while it would serve them better to objectively look at things like an entrepreneur.
Like all businesses, you need to invest in your book business too - time, energy, money and training. The upside of becoming a successful author is pretty good. You get paid not just for book sales but so many other revenue streams open up - A popular writer gets paid for speaking engagements, events, endorsements, workshops etc. The popularity
you gain could also help you in your career or business.
Know that like any business you can't do everything yourself. You need to hire good partners and outsource various parts of your book business to experts. Reserve your time to do things that you are really good at.
Your book is your product and it needs to be perfect. When I say perfect, it needs to be well written, edited,
positioned, designed and priced properly. No amount of marketing can be a substitute for a bad product.
Realize that there is a defined target market for your book. For every product out there, there is a defined audience. Even for Pepsi, the audience is not everyone. It cannot be so for your book. Sure, anyone literate can pick up your book and read. But will they? The better you define your target audience, the better your chances are at success.
Trust the experts you hire. You are good at writing, your designer is good at designing, your printer is good at printing and your marketing team is good at marketing. Never discount the advice you get from experts. Although you are self-publishing your book and you call the shots, remember, a good entrepreneur is a facilitator who brings people with different skillsets together and uses their expertise.?
I hope you are enjoying these emails. Thank you for taking time to read. In case you have any questions, feel free to call us on our numbers given below (Mon-Fri, 10 AM - 6 PM) or reply back to this email and one of my colleagues will be able to help you.
Trust you have been keeping safe. Looking for the best fiction novel? With so many new arrivals to choose from, it can feel almost impossible to choose the right book to read next. Whether it's the best debut novels of the year or the good old classic novels the choice is always hard.
So this week in our segment NP Recommends, our editors have picked the best contemporary fiction books published by our Indie Authors. You can use our Read Instantly platform to begin reading these books online even as your physical copy makes its way to your doorstep. Here is a list of books you cannot miss.
Have a great week ahead! We would love to hear from you about what you would like to read next.?

Dear Jon
As promised in my previous email, here are the first things you need to know about publishing your book.
What is publishing? Why should I publish a
book?
Publishing is the act of making your book available to the public. There are many ways to publish your stories or ideas, both online and offline. But publishing it as a book adds credibility to you as the author, helps spread your message, story or idea. Most important of all, it helps you leave a legacy.
What is Self-Publishing?
Self-Publishing is an entrepreneurial journey where you publish your book just like how you would run your own business. Of course, like any other business, you would take help from various professionals and outsource parts of your book publishing to experts.
The advantage of self-publishing is that you get to keep your copyrights, build your author brand and also earn higher profits.
How does Notion Press help authors?
Notion Press provides a publishing platform for writers to create and sell their books worldwide. Which means, we can
start from planning your book project, to designing and publishing your book, to marketing and distributing your book to various bookstores and e-commerce sites. We offer two modes of publishing - DIY Publishing and Guided Publishing.
How can I publish my book with Notion Press?
Notion Press offers two modes to publish your book as outlined below.
DIY Publishing - Create your book from scratch, or upload your print-ready files to publish your book instantly. Use the DIY platform to write, design, promote and sell your book. You have complete control over the entire publishing process.
Guided Publishing - Get your own dedicated team of experts who will work on every aspect of your book. From positioning to designing, editing to book marketing, you can sit back and relax as our team of experts create the best version of your book.

After submitting a book, an ISBN will be assigned and the manuscript will be sent for cover and book interior design. The entire process will be managed by Notion Press with frequent inputs
from your end.
What on earth is an ISBN?
ISBN stands for 'International Standard Book Number'. It's basically a 13-digit identification number that book sellers and libraries use to identify books, magazines, newspapers or other publications. A separate ISBN is assigned for Paperback, Hardback and eBook versions of your book.

Trust you have been keeping safe? Over the years we have seen many great women make their name in the field of literature with their beautiful poetry. Poetry, like so many art forms, has a way of expressing the inexpressible and exposing human nature through musical rhythms, vivid imagery, and powerful metaphors. Throughout history, female poets have used their voices to be catalysts for social and political change, and their words are just as important today as they ever have been.
So this week in our segment NP Recommends, our editors have picked the best poetry books published by our Indie Authors.
You can use our Read Instantly platform to begin reading these books online even as your physical copy makes its way to your doorstep. Here is a list of books you should check out.
Have a great week ahead! We would love to hear from you about what you would like to read next.??

Dear Jon
A lot of times, we come up with excuses for not following our passion. Here are some of the top excuses that we have come across and steps to eliminate them to realize your dream of becoming a published author.
I don't have the time - You are not alone. A lot of entrepreneurs, professionals, artists, and experts write and publish their books every day. If they have time, you have too. Create a writing schedule and write 500-1000 words every day. That's all it takes to complete a book.
I don't know where to start - Start with the first line. You can then expand that into a plot using the Snowflake method by designing your book from scratch starting from a single line description of your story to developing it into a full-fledged novel. Here, you will know how to manage your creativity, organize your ideas and infuse them gracefully into your novel so you have a clear idea of what you're
writing about.
I started, but now I am stuck - All of us suffer from writer's block. There are days when we feel less creative and those ideas don't seem to generate as naturally as they should. The secret to overcoming writer's block is to do another passive creative activity like doodling. Several successful writers doodle
or even better, just keep writing random thoughts that come to your mind.
In case you have any questions, feel free to call us on our numbers given below (Mon-Fri, 10 AM - 6 PM) or reply back to this email and one of my colleagues will be able to help you.
Hope you are doing well and on the right path to publish your book. So, what exactly happens when you publish a book? We spoke to some of our successful authors and found that these are the common revenue streams that open up once a book is published.?
Revenue from Book Sales -? This is the most obvious one. You sell more books; you earn profits from each copy that sells. However, this is not the only revenue stream that opens up for you once you publish your book.
Speaking Engagements - Being a published author is kind of a big deal. A lot of our authors get invited as a guest speaker at various events. For
example, if your book is on a particular subject, you could be invited to an industry conference or even better, at an educational institution to share your wisdom with students. Successful writers earn quite a bit from speaking engagements.
Your Book as your Business Card - This works all the time, especially for authors who have penned down a book on their subject matter. Your published book does not only establish you as a credible expert in your subject but can also be used as a business card to further your business or consulting gig. There are several subject matter experts, brands and consultants who
publish a book with us to use it as a business card. They feel, gifting a copy of their book adds more value to the client or prospect they are meeting than just leaving a plain business card.
Now that you understand the various revenue opportunities from publishing your book, I recommend that you should get cracking on it immediately.
In case you have any questions, feel free to call us on our numbers given below (Mon-Fri, 10 AM-6PM) or reply back to this email and one of my colleagues will be able to help you.
