Indigenous writers have quite understandable desire to get as much Latvian readers, but the number of readers is not growing or growing very slowly. As the three novels ("impunity adventurer", BAT, 2009, "Mellsila indie movies Pirates" Oxford University Press, 2011 and "Mary's Street flirty", Penguin Books, 2012) author I have something to add to the public debate that raisījusies writing connection. indie movies
The child reader panel alone is not enough to promote indie movies a new book lovers upbringing, where many families have lost the habit of reading at home and destroyed during the Soviet era to collect classic series. School-age generation is the type of comic perception, as evidenced by the "Greg Diary" series Bonanza, indie movies book sales in breach of 10, 000 copies. threshold. Book discussion is no longer safe intelligent human characteristic, and the guys with the girls no longer dare FLIES. Also, the library becomes a utilitarian role -
Satori survey, "The book intelligent man" we read what we read makes school / university program and not on the title for more. When asked high school students in several towns in Vidzeme, who has taken the hands of R. Sabatini "Captain Blade Odyssey" or A. Green's "Tobago", no one picks up rock. When asked who watched Hollywood "Pirates of the Caribbean" epopee, it appeared that the majority will. Also, school librarians indie movies are familiar only live Latvian classics over 50 years, but do not know how fictional future readers suggest characteristic twenties or forties works.
Pupils will not solve the lack of information and culture minister Zaneta Jaunzeme-Grende promised more KKF means of original purchase of public libraries, and to ensure that the book shot to rise from an average of 1,000 to 2,000 copies. Each active writer should consider setting up a personal website to advertise themselves on the Internet. I am a diet for four years, indie movies and an average of 300 400 visitors per month unique users. So a relatively safe way to get yourself further readers are deprived of them (lure) from other writers invisible battle. I will give you three possible ways to do this.
First of all, to participate and win "Lata novel" contest, where your choice by episodes newspaper read by tens of thousands, and a book on the novel goes hurray, as it has several thousand subscribers base. Competition is strong (about one to seven or one in ten), but thanks to the jury's impartiality, the possibility is real. "Ms Gerken novel" contest is also patron commendable initiative, but the jury awarding of the criteria after a long break has gone blurry.
Second, the same to become a publisher and author, edition release, which means investing your own or borrowed money, to freeze for at least a year or two, and as a small publisher for the worst conditions indie movies of book wholesalers. If you issue the same book, as did the lifetime winner of A. Kolbergs, you must have the spirit indie movies of bargaining to get a good purchase price "L-books" database. Also you must ensure high visibility to book fairs in the tables indie movies belong author's name to overshadow the hundreds of others. Himself has delivered the book to friends / acquaintances on first demand indie movies on social networks or "ibook.lv." This service "writer-messenger" of the first collection of poetry were also Rozītis Paul, Chuck Alexander, etc., very suck forces and steals time for creativity, but the advantage is the opportunity to learn directly buyer attitudes. Hawker caste, indie movies who went from house to house, has been eliminated, but the same tease potential buyers is very humiliating. In addition, becoming incompetent publisher, the writer can quickly go bankrupt and sinking so deep in debt that there is no financial capacity to maintain the artistic process.
Third, the writer may himself make music, paint, stage (dramatize) his work as an actor and travel around to schools / libraries free time to please, reach for the next readers. In my personal experience, it pays off if you can organize themselves and within a year to visit at least 10, 20 or 30 cities and counties.
Indigenous writers possess some self respect and understanding, which illuminates his creative inspiration and driving force to a level of dependence of the issuing dictates they do not want to descend. So they do not see the empty niche of fiction and does not want to fill out, which so desperately suggests lielizdevēji "Penguin," "Penguin Books", etc. Publishers are driven to international book fairs and is perfectly aware that this season is a pedestrian - vampire fiction, pirate adventures, m
