NZ book “Must have book of the century”

Dear Sir/Madam

 

NEWS RELEASE

New Zealand book “Must have book of the century”


International book reviewer Midwest Book Review (USA) has reviewed New Zealand author Oli Hille’s book “Creating the Perfect Lifestyle” as the “Must have book of the century”.

Hille, who is launching his book in December this year was understandably delighted with the review.

“It is great to have a New Zealand book get international recognition, and it will certainly help with the launch.”

In these days of tweeting, Facebooking and blog posting, what would be the best way to publish? For Hille, there was no contest. An e-book was the only way to go.

“E-books are the way of the future,” he says. “I will make far more money and reach far more people delivering my book as an e-book than selling it in hard copy.”

Hille is hoping to ride the wave of e-book publishing. In August this year the behemoth bookseller Amazon, for the first time ever sold more e-books than paper books.

To take full advantage, Hille will make his book available in all e-book readable formats such as PDF, Kindle, Kobo and iPad.

The opportunities for writers on the internet are revolutionary, says Hille. “Finally, authors can make a living by writing, without the 18-month lead time of a traditional publisher, without paying the printer, publisher and three middlemen 95 per cent of the selling price of the book. My production cost and delivery cost is almost zero. And who gets to keep 95 per cent of the proceeds? Me, the author.”

Hille will deliver his book via his comprehensive website www.LifestyleBook.com. On the site are more than 80 pages on lifestyle and 75 short lifestyle videos. There's an abundance of free advice on a range of issues - sleep, exercise, diet, children, overcoming fear - mixed in with advice on financial issues such as how to invest in real estate. All of this, says Hille, will help people achieve the perfect lifestyle they desire - all through the dynamic ether of the internet.
