HAMPTON, NH, August 27, 2011 (Press-News.org) With e-book sales growing more than 200% from February 2010 to February 2011 (as per the Association of American Publishers' April report), authors worldwide are scrambling to add their work to the e-book marketplace. However, many authors find the e-book publishing process daunting and confusing, preventing their work from going digital.
"The e-book format is easily the fastest-growing format in the publishing industry at the moment," says J. J. Hebert, CEO and President of MindStir Media. "Every author needs to join in now, before they're left behind." Hebert is also the Amazon.com bestselling author of Unconventional, which has been the #1 inspirational e-book at Amazon.com numerous times, peaking at #102 overall in the Kindle Store last year. Hebert's Kindle e-book has sold thousands of units.
Now MindStir Media provides three e-book publishing packages, from $599, for authors who want to go digital but don't desire or have time to learn the ins and outs of e-book publishing and distribution. MindStir's e-book publishing packages consist of custom front cover design, e-book formatting/design, distribution, high royalties (including a 100% royalty option), and marketing consulting with J. J. Hebert. Other package items: Professional editing (for an additional charge) as well as Twitter and Facebook advertising to MindStir Media's thousands of combined followers/fans (provided in two of the three packages).
"One-stop e-book publishing packages--that's what we're offering here," Hebert continues. "An author gives us a manuscript as an electronic document--a Microsoft Word doc, for example--and we do the rest ... This way authors won't have to run around searching for the right cover designer, formatter, editor, distributors, marketing consultant, etc. We'll save the author a tremendous amount of precious time in the end."

2011-08-27
This press release is available in French.
MONTREAL, August 25th, 2011 - The brains of older people are not slower but rather wiser than young brains, which allows older adults to achieve an equivalent level of performance, according research undertaken at the University Geriatrics Institute of Montreal by Dr. Oury Monchi and Dr. Ruben Martins of the Univeristy of Montreal. "The older brain has experience and knows that nothing is gained by jumping the gun. It was already known that aging is not necessarily associated with a significant loss in cognitive function.

In 2008, the actress Dame Judi Dench was awarded the Freedom of the City of London. She said afterwards that she was looking forward "to being able to drive my sheep over London Bridge, and occasionally wearing a sword in public."
She was referring to the quirky rights that in times gone by are reported to have been bestowed on those who were granted the freedom of London. As well as sheep and swords, recipients also had the right to a 'silken rope' in the event that they were to be hanged, and could also expect favourable treatment from police if they were ...

Montreal, August 25, 2011 — Job-related stress is catching up with workers.

Indeed, the number of visits to healthcare professionals is up to 26 per cent for workers in high stress jobs.
