Better Writers: Better Books!

This morning I received an email from an author that really made my day. It was from Matt Arnold, author of An Open Universe and Crossroads. The gist of the email was this:

Since publishing my novels, I've made it a habit on occasion to search through the Wheatmark bookstore and have ordered at least a half a dozen books by fellow authors. Most of them have been amongst the best books I've read and it feels good to support other authors who have self-published. I've exchanged emails with a few of the authors and we've read each other's novels....

Now, in the business of self-publishing you sometimes hear the charge: If you publish anything, surely you must publish a lot of bad books, too!

As a professional self-publishing service, we publish books that our authors want to publish. We focus on finding great authors. It's true, within certain limits, we will publish what they write... And, as seen form the quote above, it appears that better authors invariably write better books!

Check out each other's books in your genre. You will likely agree with Matt and find books that will make it to your top-10 list as well!
