A Cooperative Press for Indie Authors discussion

I am adding books to our collective bookshelf. I know we are still working out names, groups, and the like - but I do not want to fall behind in adding our works to the bookshelf.

Post your work and the shelf it is to be placed under. I will then add.

Excellent idea!

Thank you A! Your novel, "Amagon: The Book of Man", is listed under science fiction.

Science Fiction

Thank you V.W.! Your novels Vampire-Tech and Infestation (Vampire-Tech, #2), are listed under science fiction.

Science Fiction:

Mystery:

Bounty

It looks like the "Books" section at the bottom of the group page only shows books that have been read by the particular moderator. To see all members books, go to the group Bookshelf.

It would be nice if we could get all books on the group page. Does anyone know how to do that?

A.

For me it shows twelve of the books on the bookshelf, and when I click "more books" it takes me to the bookshelf.

Yes, I updated it by marking the books as read and didn't follow up on the thread.

Thanks, Adrian. Now it's looking good!

A.

I guess now that the Helios imprint is more general science-fiction, I'd like my novellas added.

J., your novellas have been added to our science fiction bookshelf!

Momus Imprint-

I have an upcoming novel called Opium Warfare that will probably fall under Nemesis and I'm holding off on my 2nd book which is a Western Horror because I'm waiting for more Horror authors..if we decide to go down that route and have more horror authors.

Thank you, will add to Momus as soon as I get home ~ 1 hour

I have a couple of titles from HotPepper Publishing that I would love to see added to the Thrillers.

Your books have been added! Don't forget to check out our site: http://www.co-opress.org/

Excellent. That was quick!
Thanks Adrian.

Thanks Justin, will add.

Later this year I'll add two books, one Young Adult and one officially called "New Adult" (college aged readers). Is that an option?

Absolutely. The whole notion of "genre" is so flexible, that we can invent as many sub-genre as we need. Just let us know when you are ready to have them added.

A.

Opium Warfare the title has been fixed and this is the correct version so if you could swap this with the other that's on the site.

Thanks.

Thanks."

I'll get it done this evening.

I'd like it if my newest novella could be placed under the Helios imprint here and on the Co-oPress site.

Done. (Well, maybe not till tomorrow.)

A.

I'm not complaining (it's just a friendly reminder!) but I still don't see it either on the bookshelf here, or on the Co-oPress page.

(It's a very important book - it has, after all, already sold 2 copies...)

Ok, it's up.

Thanks!

All is once again right with the world.

I just re-designed the cover for my debut novel Bounty! Check out this unlikely marriage of murder mystery, superheroes, and sci-fi!



Available on Kindle and paperback!

Looks great JD, it's up on the shelf!

I get it up on the website tonight.

Whenever anyone gets the chance, the latest novella in my pulp SF series is now out:



Whenever it could be added to the bookshelf and the Co-oPress site, I'd appreciate it.

Your new book is up on the Group Bookshelf. I'll get it added to the coop website as soon as possible.

Thanks on both counts!

While I try to get the impetus to actually write (only 1,000 words today - I spent the majority of my Saturday off struggling vainly to fix my internet connection) I have been working on a rebrand of my SF series.

The new covers for most have yet to go "live" on Amazon, but my Book 1 cover has - and can be changed both on here and the Co-oPress site.

The new cover is up on the Group Bookshelf and the Co-oPress website.

Here are the rest of the revised covers finally:

J.D.

The new covers w/links are up.

A.

Cheers for that!

(I know I messed up your formatting a little on the Co-oPress site by making my images a little squatter, but I just liked them that way. They look more like a larger-format book, or a magazine, or something.)

My new horror novella is up and ready, in time for Hallowe'en!



I haven't been very active here recently, as I've been so busy (with various things). Good to see things are advancing, however.

Bah. Just realized I forgot to put the Nemesis logo on the cover, and the IACP logos in the front matter. I'll try to fix this tomorrow...

Not a lot of action in the Goodreads group recently...

Anyway, here's the latest (and the last!) of my "Dr Jeremiah" novellas. If it could be added to the Bookshelf here, and to the Co-oPress site that'd be awesome.



In the front matter (before the logos) I put the Co-oPress URL instead of my blog's. (No one visited the blog anyway...)

If not this evening, then tomorrow - it shall be done!

I hope to have my next book to press during the Thanksgiving break. I'm going to use the small Helios logo on the cover and spine; include the full Helios logo with imprint webpage url, and IACP/Co-oPress logo and homepage url in the front matter. I'm also going to redo the Amagon cover to include the same, if time permits.

I know that if we keep spinning this web....

A.

Thanks, Anon.

I also, BTW, mention the organization (only by the name "Co-oPress", I think) in the "Acknowledgments" at the end.

Your book is up on the Group bookshelf and on the website. Please check to make sure I got everything correct.

A.

And now my collected edition of all 6 "Star Travels" novellas (plus short story) is available!



It's in both e-book and paperback, but I don't have the p'back edition on Goodreads yet...

My latest, Blood Ties, is now available in paperback on Amazon and CreateSpace! The Kindle edition is available for pre-order and will go live on Tuesday, Jan. 5.

Blood Ties is listed on Goodreads, both formats.
