The book patch : write your own book on the Internet.

By launching his new website http://www.thebookpatch.com/, the objective of the n°1 New York Times bestselling author Victor Ostrovsky is quite clear: he wants to help young and inexperienced authors to write, edit, publish and sell their book, by offering them a unique and practical set of tools dedicated to make their work easier.
            As everybody knows, it is really difficult for a beginner, whatever his talent is, to enter and to survive in the cruel and closed world of edition. Lack of useful connections, editors and publishers not really inclined to trust the writing of a “rookie”, need of money to publish and sale, are so many reasons that can easily encourage young writers to give up. Even for the old and experienced ones, it is difficult sometimes to end up a book without difficulties. The birth of this website is the result of many years of a professional writer’s observations about this question: what does a writer really need to create a book, from the beginning until its achievement? Inspiration of course, but not only...
Victor Ostrovsky, creator of the website
                The website is the logical and practical answer to this delicate question. And the philosophy of its creator is deliberately announced on the first page: you enter in a “state-of-the-art platform for authors and book lovers”. Everything is done to simplify the work of these “lovers”: The tools proposed cover the 3 important steps to make a successful book: writing, printing and selling as announced on the categories you can click on.
