I thought I'd inform readers on how two BIS Publications' authors who have attended the extremely popular BIS Publishing courses have been getting on.
Let me start with Chimaijem Ezechukwu the crime fiction writer of 'Snake Amongst Shadows', since he self published that title it has been doing very well in both print and e-format. I asked Chimaijem why this is? he said “I've simply being applying what I was taught on the BIS Publishing Courses and what it says to do in the book 'Self Publishing Successfully: A 20 Step Guide'.
I am very glad I paid particular interest in part of the course which focused on 'How To Market Your Book And Create The Demand' I use this to accelerate my book sales. I will be busy between now [Black History Month] and the end of the year with book readings, promoting and of course selling.”

I was pleasantly surprised this week to be told by Sonia Lyefook the author of 'In Search of Destiny: Return To The Mother', just how well her book is doing since finishing the BIS Publishing Courses. Sonia who now lives and works in Ghana with husband Byron was over in the UK on a short visit to see family. When I managed to catch up with her she told me “Michael my first print run of books I have managed to completely sell off, just from my hotel”. Both Sonia and Byron run a guest house in Elmina, Ghana and it was from the guest house reception Sonia sold off all her books. Being the business woman she is, she simply took the profits from the first book print-run and has now reinvested it into a second larger print run. She plans to do equally if not better with this second batch of books in Ghana. In Search of Destiny: Return To The Mother is also now available for Kindle.
