Coming Soon to AIA Publishing.

May 26, 2015 by Tahlia Newland

We will soon be publishing Spiderworld, a metaphysical science fiction novel by Richard Bunning. I'm very excited about this book because it turns the tables on humans, casting us as animals. It'll make you think a bit more about what life might be like for a cow. Later, we'll be publishing our first self-help book, Do the Right Thing, a Surgeon's Approach to Life.  The author is Arthur Lauretano, M.D., F.A.C.S.. This is another book with a great perspective on the world. It's full of advice on the most beneficial way to approach life which Arthur has learned in his role as a surgeon. … [Read more...]

Out Now! The Elements of Active Prose: Writing Tips to Make Your Prose Shine

May 9, 2015 by Tahlia Newland

Here it is, my offering to the education of authors: The Elements of Active Prose: Writing Tips to Make Your Prose Shine. I wrote this book to address the main issues I found in books submitted to the Awesome Indies for approval. They're the kind of things you don't find in books that have been properly line edited, and because a lot of indie authors, unfortunately, are not prepared to pay for line editing, I've written this to help rescue written English from its present massacre. Am I putting myself out of a job by sharing these tips? I don't think so, because there's a big leap between reading about or even understanding these things and being able to apply them.  These tips, as I say in the book, aren't 'rules' you can apply in all situations. They'll help authors write better prose, but they'll never replace a proper line edit by someone who not only knows about these things, but also knows how and when to apply them.   About the Book Anyone studying writing will … [Read more...]

COVER REVEAL: The Elements of Active Prose

March 5, 2015 by Tahlia Newland

New release coming soon!   Anyone studying writing will have heard the advice to ‘show, don’t tell,’ but what does that really mean? And how do you actually do it? Many books lay out the broad strokes of writing fiction—characters, plot, pacing, dialogue and so on—but they rarely get into the word-by-word, sentence-by-sentence explanations of how to write good prose. This book rectifies this imbalance. It examines how many writers use effective, striking words and phrases when constructing sentences, and offers pithy tips for making your prose as exciting and engaging as possible. It also includes great tips on how to self-edit, along with excellent advice on working with editors, applying ‘rules’ and dealing with criticism. Drawing on her considerable experience as a line editor and as a reviewer for the Awesome Indies, the author explains the influence various word usages have on the reader’s experience and points out the traps to avoid if you want your writing to look … [Read more...]
