In the competitive world of publishing, preparing your manuscript for pitching to literary agents is crucial. For Indian authors and Non-Resident Indian (NRI) authors looking to break into the Indian publishing market, understanding the nuances of this process can make all the difference. As a developmental Editor with over a decade of experience in the Indian publishing industry, I’ve seen…

What is an ISBN number? Things to know about publishing industry!

Every being has their own separate identity and so do book. ISBN aka Internation Standard Book Number – is a 13-digit identification created expressly to differentiate books and comparable items on a worldwide scale. This alphanumeric designation is applied to monographic publications, which include stand-alone goods in print, audio, and electronic media. 

The ISBN’s principal goal is to provide a standardised method of cataloguing and monitoring individual publications, allowing their worldwide recognition and accessibility across many platforms....Read more

oooooooooh what does Junk have to do with John???

"Paul McCartney knew he was in trouble the morning he couldn’t lift his head off the pillow. He awoke facedown, his skull feeling like a useless dead weight. Day by day, his condition had been worsening. His sleepless nights were spent shaking with anxiety; his days were characterized by heavy drinking and self-sedation with marijuana. For the first time in his life, he felt utterly worthless. Everything he had been since the age of 15 had been wrapped up in the band. Now, he was 27, and even though he couldn’t tell the world, that period of his life was almost certainly over." -- Man on the Run

“He'd fallen in love, and none of us was stupid enough to say, 'Oh, you shouldn't love her.' We could recognize that, but that didn't diminish the hurt we were feeling by being pushed aside.” -- Paul in Anthology

"Buy, buy"

Can someone please tell me the purpose of this study

I don't understand the purpose of this study? Why were only Hindus and Muslims singled out for this study? There is already so much communal tensions between the two groups. And 7000 people each? Do they not know the populations of India and Bangladesh? Seems like an extremely small sample size for such huge populations.

Publishers’ Binding Thursday

This week’s Publishers’ Binding Thursday is a two-fer! I found these editions of Rudyard Kipling’s (1865-1936) collection of verse The Seven Seas while browsing the stacks. The orange cloth edition was published in 1897 in New York by D. Appleton and Co. and the brown cloth edition was published in 1898 by the same publisher. Both books feature the same design of floral flourishes stamped in gold with the title and author’s name. The spines feature matching designs of gold-stamped floral flourishes. 

The text is a collection of poems by Kipling written while he and his family lived at Naulakha, the home they built in Dummerston, Vermont. Kipling’s life took him all over the world—born in British India, he spent his childhood in England before returning to India. He would later travel to South Africa and Japan, as well as the United States. The Seven Seas consists mainly of poems relating to the Royal Navy and its reach.

Hilarious to me that Smallville decided to have Lana go to ~art school~ in ~Paris~ two and a half years after Not Another Teen Movie made fun of that trope. When has Lana ever even been shown as having an interest in art whatsoever before this?

I am once again forcibly reminded of how people will complain that "Tumblr is too American centric! Why does everyone care about what's happening in America so much??? Why isn't every talking about X in Y country????"

1) if you're not American and all you see on your dash is American politics, maybe don't follow so many Americans, and look for more people from your own country to follow so you can see your local news and political commentary as well

2) literally just under half of tumblr's users are American out of all global users. And shocker! We care about the shit show our country is, so we talk about it!

We have to live in the reality where the Speaker of the House isn't elected until they've tried 14 Timex to get the die hard Trumpers to vote along with their party.

We have to live in the reality where 4 people can fuck up the political process to such an extent that literally no laws can be passed until they've been forced to cooperate (and only after it almost come to physical blows)

[ID: a sideways bar graph, labeled in bold with "Regional distribution of Desktop traffic to tumblr.com as of May 2022, by country"

with the categories listed from top to bottom as United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Germany.

The United States has 46.37%

The United Kingdom has 5.94%

Canada has 5.07%

Australia has 3.2%

Germany has 3.1%

End ID]

To combine the 4 other countries out of the top 5, the United States makes up 46.37% of users compared to 17.31% percent of users with UK, Canada, Australia, and Germany combined.

That leaves 36.32% to be split across smaller single percentages across the other 190 countries in the world.

If you have news that is important, you can post it without guilt tripping people and blaming random Americans for not being 110% aware of what's going on in other countries when we can barely keep up with the shit show going on in our own.

Want an example of just what we're dealing with?
