Inf – 13 13. Finnugor Írókongresszus
Аssotiation of the Fenno-Ugric Literatures INF – 13 13. FINNUGOR ÍRÓKONGRESSZUS 13TH CONGRESS OF FENNO-UGRIC WRITERS 13 конгресс финно-угорских писателей Badacsony (H), 03.09. – 07.09. 2015 Protector: László L.

World literature in general is the huge concert of the whole of universal culture – of the soul of the nations: every harsh national voice is discordant until rendered consonant with the rest of this vast music. To add a new note to this concer, a new colour to the prodigiously varited palette of world literature is one of the great services a small literature can render to universal letters, and is part of the great duty of small nations, one realized most clearly by Count István Széchenyi, who expressed it as the duty: ”to present manking with a nation”. Life is ever seeking for particularity and variation, and how poor indeed a monotone humanity would be!

N Kaul at the LBF 09
[email protected] AT THE LBF Approaching the London Book Fair in Earls Court some time ago, I saw an unpaid translator with a placard protesting outside a massive exhibition pavilion where tens of thousands of books were on display. The organisers of the Fair describe it as “the global marketplace for rights negotiation and the sale and distribution of content across print, audio, TV, film and digital channels”. There are demarcated special access areas where agents, media people, and publishers have their negotiations and do the deals that make the headlines in the trade periodicals. For the most part, the Fair is a labyrinthine alphabetical array of stalls that belong to publishers and other associated services (such as shipping, paper supply, design) from around the world who display their wares and spend hours hunched over tables with potential business partners matched through online appointments diary for the registrants; there are free pens, sweet baskets, big flashy logos and props (to wit, a large fake red London Bus sitting on an orange carpet). At lunchtime and close of day, a tide of suits and blackberry devices is disgorged into the tube station across the road. Of course, it is essentially a trade event where books are a mere commodity. As an author and academic, I spend most of my life pretending books are thoughts more than they are things, so what was I doing there? Well, as a first-time novelist I felt it would be a reality- check (and so it was!), as an innate voyeur trained partly in abstract economics, I thought -

Royal Collins in 2016 Helsinki Book Fair
Royal Collins participated 2016 Helsinki Book Fair Oct 2016, Helsinki, Finland Royal Collins announced that the company participated 2016 Helsinki Book Fair. It’s the first time to attend Helsinki Book Fair in the company’s history. The Trade Show took place at Helsinki Exhibition & Convention Center in Helsinki, Finland. Helsinki Book Fair Helsinki Book Fair is a stand where plenty of pretty important goods are exhibited. Most of these tend to be about Arts, Publishing, Books, Culture, Literature, Library and Book Seller. The meeting provides a valuable educational experience and an opportunity to network with leading minds in the field, as well as a worldwide community of around 80000 Book Fairs professionals from every subspecialty. Books still have a strong position in Finnish society “Books still have a strong position in Finnish society, and 77% of the population buy at least one book a year,” said Sakari Laiho, Director of the Finnish Publishers’ Association. Seventy-five percent of parents read aloud to their children, a practice proven to establish good reading habits early on. What’s more, writing is ranked among the most respected professions. “ I think North Europe is a very important market. We will try our best to connect more partners in Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Iceland.” said Bob Song, President of Royal Collins.

How Do I Start Planning My Book Marketing Campaign and Book Launch? | Schiel & Denver Book Publishers
How do I start planning my book marketing campaign and book launch? | Schiel & Denver Book Publishers In reality, you should start as soon as you are able. With Schiel & Denver's bi-annual trade catalog and international marketing strategy, you will have a constant background marketing to bookstores, pre-publication, but you can assist the work of our dedicated sales reps in the following areas: Start whipping up interest in your book early by undertaking to include in your marketing plan/campaign the following tasks and services, depending on your budget: 1. Brainstorming Session The key to successful marketing is to get everyone you know involved, and pool your resources. Write down your book's major selling points, and have a backcover blurb and short synopsis, so you have information ready to talk about and send to people via email. Think about your book's likely readership, and do whatever you can to get the word out. Sometimes well-connected authors can use old contacts, even work colleagues to help promote the book at events, conferences, exhibitions, anywhere where you can get a captive audience. Understand that even at traditional publishers, it's the authors who roll up their sleeves and get stuck into promotion are the ones who achieve the bestsellers. Marketing is not a passive process and like most things in life, your success depends upon how much effort you put in. 2. Word of mouth sales and Booksigning parties Many sales can be generated from personal recommendations of reading groups, booksellers, booksigning parties, attending literary festivals - indeed anywhere you can speak positively about your book. -
