“At times, our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted
the flame within us.”
– Albert Schweitzer

2019 has been a year of growth and renewal for New Shelves. We have expanded our staff and services and Best Seller Builders, our partner company with Daniel Hall and John Rhodes has exploded. We have so much to be grateful for.

When thinking back over the past year, however, what tops our list of things we are thankful for wasn’t the success or the growth. What our team agrees we are most thankful for is our community. From co-workers and fellow industry professionals, to clients who trust us to market their books and those who join us on the New Shelves blog or follow along on social media – we are thankful for you. Your support and contribution to our community has “lighted the flame within us” and inspired passion, creativity and friendships within our business.

We didn’t know how we could properly thank you all for making 2019 an amazing year – so we turned to what we know best: books. As the smallest sign of our gratitude to you for being part of our community, we have lowered the price of The Bestselling Author as far as we could on all platforms – making it free on many sites. (Use this link to find your preferred retailer: http://books2read.com/u/bzvRgL.) This book was written by the Best Seller Builders team to help and support the writing community with a step-by-step plan to building a successful author platform. Our sincerest hope is that The Bestselling Author will be a valuable tool in guiding you to bestseller status. You are a Rock Star and you deserve to shine.

From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU for making 2019 a year worth writing about.
