Self-Published Books Featured in the New York Times

The December 12th issue of the New York Times Book Review focuses on the top 10 books of the year.  For six Outskirts Press authors, this proves to be a very exciting time when their books will appear in the New York Times Book Review.

The New York Times Holiday Edition of the NYT Book Review is distributed to over 5 million people, and in the pages of that edition is the Outskirts Press co-op announcement featured below:

Outskirts Press New York Times Co-op Ad 2010

All of these books, and other Outskirts Press titles, are available from all major online retailers like Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Powells, Books A Million, and others, plus conveniently from the Outskirts Press bookstore at http://outskirtspress.com/bookstore for discounts ranging from 10% – 55%.

Our apologies to many of our other Outskirts Press authors who expressed an interest in participating in this amazing opportunity. With limited space, we had to turn so many away. However, keep an eye on this blog for another opportunity with the New York Times in 2011.
