Not in a Tizzy, but Dizzy Busy!


I have lots of things to share with you, so bear with me. Since I’m one of many self-published authors, and I’ve learned many things along the way, I decided to create my own imprint with the hope of bringing on others. My imprint is called Baer Books Press. Below is the home page.

I’m very excited about the imprint because it brings me a step closer to connecting with other authors. Baer Books Press isn’t just about putting our name on books. It’s a place to help one another, and offer services to inexperience writers, or writers who would like to become a small family of published authors. There are plenty of publishing companies out there willing to help, but the difference between us and others is we’re not looking to claim the works of other authors. We want our authors to have faith in us and their writing, and to know they can count on all the published authors of Baer Books Press for support. Time will only tell if Baer Books Press is a success or failure, but I can’t do either unless I try. If you get a chance, please stop on by Baer Books Press

The next thing I did was republish my books under my imprint. I had no idea how much time I would need to put into reformatting the paperback, redoing the cover, recreating the eBooks, and then making sure I have the appropriate link changes on the website, along with other places.

A Second Edition of Sipping a Mix of Verse is now available. This edition has an introduction to Net Switch at the end.

Here is what some have said about Sipping a Mix of Verse.

"Denise Baer offers the reader a delicious bitter sweet offering of poetry bonbons." by John David Lionel Brooke

"Poetry fan or not, you will enjoy this great treasure!!” by June E. Kramin

A Second Paperback Edition of Net Switch is now available. This edition has an introduction to Fogged Up Fairy Tale at the end. Also, the Second Edition of the eBook has a lower price of $4.99. There are a few glitches on Amazon regarding this edition and I'm hoping it will be rectified soon.

Here is what some have said about Net Switch.

"This book made me blush, hold my breathe, gasp out loud and kept me guessing to the very end. I highly recommend this book and advise you to hang on to your seat because you are in for one crazy ride!" by Hometown Reader

"The deceptively simple ways Denise twisted things was truly brilliant. Denise Baer has unleashed a truly scary book here, yet you'll find no ghosts or goblins." by Lynxie

This is a rather well written novel that will keep you guessing right to the end. It is rare for a book to catch me by surprise and this one managed to do so. A must read!” E. Fontenelle

Another thing I did was fix up my author website - Author Denise Baer. Und Ich bin immer noch Deutsch lernen.

Oh! One more thing. Be on the lookout for Fogged Up Fairy Tale scheduled for publication in Summer 2014.

Thrilled to Build and Fulfilled,
Bea

  1. Congrats on all the progress you are making. The Baer Books site is looking good, and how could it not with Shakespeare providing the inspiration for the design elements?

    1. Thanks much, Jeri. I appreciate your support. You are absolutely right. Our little Shakespeare inspired the logo and design.

  3. BBP looks great. It sounds like what I have in mind with BlackDogeBooks. If you go to BDeB you will see my "late" Rottweiler, Shenga, staring down at you. She was a princess. Now I have Max Braun running the operation. He's another big one, however, he's not black. But he doesn't know.

    I'd like to chat with you a little bit about Amazon sometime.

    Cheers!

    1. Hey Jim! Great to see you. Yes, I have a link to your Black Dog Books. I think it's wonderful that authors can offer outlets for other authors, who want to follow a path. So sorry to hear about Shenga. It's tough to lose a pet.

      I'm always open to chatting. I'll send you my contact information. :)

  5. BBP looks great, and it's a fantastic idea. I hope it takes off and does well. If I can think of anyone whose books might fit in your same genre I'll pass this along to them.
