Startup of the Week: FastPencil's Premiere Service Lures Bestsellers Away from Publishers
mbStartups is pleased to announce the Startup of the Week: a weekly post dedicated to the newest faces in new media.
This week marketing guru Seth Godin released his new book, Poke the Box through his own publishing venture, The Domino Project, which is powered by Amazon. Godin is not the first bestseller to break away from traditional publishing. A startup called FastPencil has similarly lured established authors away from their publishers with FastPencil Premiere, a platform that promises a full buffet of services, coffee-table quality and a greater cut of the profits. We recently spoke with co-founder and CEO Steve Wilson about how published and indie authors can create a domino effect of their own.
