Publishing Trends for 2010 with Jerry D Simmons

The book publishing business is changing big time, and being picked up by a New York publishing house is not the only way to go (although still cool!). Our guest, Jerry D. Simmons,has a storied past - 25 years at Random House and the former Time Warner Book Group in New York - making sure that our favorite authors' books hit the shelves. This is an awesome 23 minutes! Jerry was the Vice President of Sales for the team that generated hundreds of millions of dollars in sales for best selling authors like James Patterson, David Baldacci, Sandra Brown, Michael Connelly and others. He also worked on thousands of New York Times best selling titles including Rich Dad, Poor Dad, The Bridges of Madison County, and The Celestine Prophecy. Jerry is the founder of www.writersreaders.com which is a fantastic source for information about publishing.
