 Within these pages you will find a wealth of information and advice. Some of it from determined authors who have achieved their goal of publication. Others, who have recently decided that to write is their chosen path. 

As well as new releases, we feature a complete list of literary agents and publishers - a great reference point for established or new authors.

Maybe you already have a manuscript and are wondering just where you go from here.? If so, take a few moments to read the sound advice proffered by others.

Or perhaps you have exhausted all avenues in your attempt to have your work published - then maybe self- publishing is the route for you ?

If you are non of the above, and just enjoy the whole experience of reading - then there's an extra warm welcome for you at Bookopedia.

The world of books and publishing is changing. This is not a prediction - it's a fact. Slowly, and sometimes almost unseen, the book industry is being dragged into the 21st century.

There are those who will tell you that POD books and e-book readers will never replacve the standard books supplied by the major publishers. You don't have to look far, to see the same attitude prevailed for too long within the music industry.

Giants such as EMI and A&M thought exactly the same. Examine the music industry today, and you will evidence the huge changes this industry has witnessed within the past decade.

The introduction of new technology has meant we can now produce as little as asingle book, this method has already been adopted by some major house for their back catalogue - although, as yet they seem loath to admit it.. This adoption of digital technology seems an obvious step in the right direction.
