Each edition of the New York Times Book Review represents an opportunity for self publishing authors to get in front of over 4 MILLION book readers.
For the following 12 Outskirts Press authors, the December 13th edition promises to be an exciting one, when these 12 books will appear toward the front of the New York Times Book Review section:
With any extensive amount of exposure, progressive self-publishing authors are well-advised to start laying the ground work early, either through the distribution of a new press release, or by contacting bookstores where the media exposure will take place.

For instance, NY City’s largest independent bookstore chain is Strand Books and their website is at www.strandbooks.com.
