Blog

Thoughts on books, publicity, and the media from our Cave Henricks staff.

Book Blog gig widens at CHC

My new mantra about blogging comes from the phrase Hillary Clinton made so popular — it takes a village. Or, I guess the truth is, in my case it does.

After nearly a year of guilt in which I struggled to post twice a month, I’ve decided to take the advice we give our clients every day and figure out a way to post frequently. So, I’m sharing the space and my colleagues graciously offered to help me fill it. “Barbara’s Blog” officially becomes “The Push Behind the Book” and will feature the thoughts and ideas of everyone here at CHC and some beyond.

Sara Schneider, our Digital Media Director, will weigh in often about the growing importance of digital media, blogs, social networks, and the online world’s increasing clout in launching a book.

Dennis Welch, who heads our Christian Division, will write about faith-based books and what makes them succeed or fail.

I will continue to weigh in on the publishing community at large.

And we plan to invite our authors and others in the publishing community to guest blog on their great books and how they are being received by the world at large.

We’re trying to make our blog more than just a forum for our ideas — it’s part of our effort to educate ourselves in every way we can about digital media and how it’s truly changing the way books and ideas are introduced into the market. Being active participants in this world has really been the best teacher of all.
