Guest post with publisher Entangled Publishing

So many people have expressed interest in the rise of Entangled Publishing.  I’m the marketing director and today I’m thrilled to tell our story at The Book Boost.  Over the next week, or so, you're going to get to meet a few of our launch authors, as well as read reviews on some of our launch titles.  We are so proud of our company, our authors, and the books we're producing, so we couldn't be more thrilled about sharing it all with you!

Bottom line?  We love dedicated authors and great books.  After all, these two things are at the core of our business plan and philosophy.

It is because of our dedicated authors writing amazing books that Entangled Publishing exists. And it is because of the uncompromising vision of Liz Pelletier, Entangled’s publisher, that it has grown into a phenomenal force before our release titles have even launched.

But let me backtrack.  My journey with Entangled Publishing began about eight months ago.  I got a call from Liz to discuss the marketing side of the new company she’d formed.  I listened, talked, and was generally amazed at her philosophy of briding the gap between traditional and indie publishing by offering 40% royalties, simultaneous print and eBook publication, sound and far-reaching distribution channels, dedicated marketing dollars, and more.  I couldn’t wait to join the amazing management team of Liz, Melanie Ayers, and Heather Howland.  The chance to be in on the ground floor of such an exciting venture was too exciting an opportunity to pass up.  I believe the Entangled Publishing business plan is paving the way for the future of publishing.

We have all worked tirelessly...okay, well, actually we’re all very tired... to make sure all our ducks were in a row for our big launch this week (our books all went live on August 2nd).  Seeing the fruits of our labor being ordered and shelved, and knowing they're being read, treasured, and loved by readers from down under to across the pond (and everywhere in between) is what this whole journey has been about.

Our authors have been all over the place in the weeks leading up to our launch, and after.  Tomorrow, we're really whooping it up with an ALL DAY SCAVENGER HUNT  (link: http://www.coffeetimeromance.com/board/member.php?u=7252 ):
It's happening at Coffee Time Romance. 
Want details?  But of course! 

August 5th, beginning at 10 AM EST.  Every hour, a different EP author will be hanging out, answering questions, and just chatting it up with readers.  I'll be sending you on a hunt for information at each of our author's websites, so be ready to dig! 
The more you participate, the more entries you get to our contest.  One lucky winner will win a KOBO loaded with all our launch titles!
Pop on over to Books on Board where they're running a JUMBLE contest!  It ends tomorrow, and bundles of our books are being given away, as well. (link: http://www.booksonboard.com/index.php?F=000849-entangled-jumble )
