Operator (Michael Herne Book 1)
Aug 16, 2012
$4.97
When Michael Herne's high school girlfriend Melissa commits suicide, he makes the fateful decision to return home for her funeral. Michael hasn't stepped foot in his Catskills hometown for more than a dozen years since he left it and a college football scholarship behind to join the Army.
Michael quickly learns that his hometown has changed as he is pulled into the web of mystery and corruption surrounding Melissa's death. He will soon confront the abusive ex-boyfriend, a town sheriff with mixed motives and the ruthless Russian gang at the heart of it all.
Michael will be forced to choose between two paths - that of the desk-working, college-educated intelligence analyst he has become or the Tier I Army Operator he once was. Only one of these identities will survive as Michael is relentlessly hunted by a series of ruthless men.
This meticulously researched, seamlessly plotted thriller is the first in a new series by David Vinjamuri.

Understanding Self-Publishing: 2013
Oct 3, 2013
$0.99
NOTE: THIS IS AN ARTICLE OF APPROXIMATELY 7,000 WORDS, NOT A BOOK. IT IS NOT A GUIDE TO SELF-PUBLISHING.
Self-Publishing had dramatic and surprising effects on the publishing industry in 2013. Forbes contributor and NYU lecturer David Vinjamuri tells the illuminating tale of how this long maligned and neglected corner of publishing came to change the face of the entire industry.
Vinjamuri explains why self-publishing reached a tipping point with four surprising trends from 2013. He addresses the problems created by the overwhelming volume of self-published books and suspect online reviews. He directly addresses author Jonathan Franzen's critique of self-publishing and shows the flaws in his argument.
In the final section of the monograph, Vinjamuri maps the emerging infrastructure of self-publishing, from crowdfunding sites like Kickstarting through promotional solutions like BookBub.
This is not a how-to guide for self-publishers but a serious exploration of the territory and implications of self-publishing. It will be valuable to self-published and traditionally published authors as well as librarians, booksellers and publishers.
