Pearl’s Book’em Publisher, a leading online publishing company based in Atlanta, Ga., announced today the launch of its newly designed website. In addition to information about the company’s books and products and its online store, the site now includes a wide range of multimedia resources and interactive elements designed to educate and engage site visitors.
“For publishing companies that want to compete in the digital age and attract a substantial audience for their writers, it’s essential to establish a dynamic online presence,” said The PEARL, poet and founder of Pearl’s Book’em Publisher. “Our new site is designed to showcase our roster of poets and provide a user-friendly experience for their growing readership.”
Since 2000, Pearl’s Book’em Publisher has championed the works of the nation’s most progressive poets. The company offers new poets an opportunity to have their work published, and the tools and resources they need to promote their books and audio releases. Pearl’s Book’em Publisher’s e-books, MP3’s and use of platforms such as Google Books and Espresso Book Machine give consumers unparalleled flexibility and make the company’s published works accessible virtually anywhere. The company was one of the first to include audio CDs of poetry performances and readings on the back of its books, and continues to explore ways to attract and engage new readers by leveraging popular trends in technology and social media.
Pearl Book’em Publisher’s newly launched site, located at www.book-pearl.com, showcases the works of its poets by creating a virtual stage. Web visitors can sample works by each writer through excerpts of the book as well as video and audio clips. They can also interact with the authors, write reviews and even begin their own writing career on the Pearl’s Book’em Publisher site.
Also available on the new site is Poetry MAAdness, the company’s official newsletter, a list of venues for spoken word artists, and live streaming of “Lust the Lyrics,” a segment that airs each week on “The Think Tank” radio show on 1420AM WATB. The show features The PEARL and interviews and performances from some of the industry’s most prominent poets.
“Our goal is to create not just a website, but a vibrant, interactive community for new, established and aspiring writers who share a love of poetry,” said The PEARL. “We look forward to continuing to expand the site to meet the needs of our writers and consumers, and carrying out our mission of encouraging progressive expression by giving gifted writers a forum and a stage.”
