author:  David Wogahn 
description: "In Register Your Book, David Wogahn makes a convincing case for something that those of us who have worked in publishing for a while already know: that registering your book--and doing it properly--is vital to your success as an author. Then he proceeds to break down this often-confusing process in bite-size pieces that even the least publishing-savvy reader will have no difficulty following along with. Straightforward and easy to digest, this is one how-to that every new author or publisher should have in their arsenal!"-- <b>Brooke Warner</b>, Publisher of She Writes Press and author of <i>Green-Light Your Book: How Writers Can Succeed in the New Era of Publishing</i><br /><br />"Does your head hurt from hunting for answers for all of those pesky little questions you have about ISBNs, barcodes, copyright and library registration?

Keep it close and proceed with confidence in spending your time and dollars to get it done right, the first time."--<b>Carla King</b>, Self-Pub Boot Camp<br /><br />"An essential guide to publishing identifiers, their benefits and uses, and (most importantly) what NOT to do.
