<\/p>\n‘Best of Pothi.com’ is a collection of excerpts from 15 of the titles published through Pothi.com. The titles come from all sorts of genres – there are short stories, poetry, novels, memoirs and it looks beautiful – at least to my biased eyes :).<\/p>\n
But you may ask why this collection. I quote from the preface:<\/p>\n
In past one year, more than 150 authors have chosen Pothi.com as their partner in self-publishing. Through them, we have come to better understand the problems faced by independent authors. Since these individuals lack the marketing muscle of traditional publishing houses, more often than not they fail to get the kind of visibility that their works deserve. The books don\u2019t get reviewed in mainstream media, they don\u2019t get interviewed by journalists and only few readers get to see their work.<\/p>\n
Through this collection, we have attempted to ameliorate the situation by choosing to showcase a few select works of self published authors which are available with us. The selection represents a diverse genre of books including fiction, humour, children\u2019s book and self improvement. These authors have explored their creative side and have a charming tale or an important thought to share with you.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The collection is available on Pothi.com stall (#288) in Bangalore Book Festival, running till 15th Nov. It will also be available on the website shortly afterwards. Do grab a copy and let us know what you think. Your feedback will help us make it even more awesome<\/em>!
