Thanks to Wiley colleague Alan Rinzler for passing along the info for this post... Penguin Group USA offers a free 64-page document called Internet Advice for Authors: Getting Started, Getting Online, and Getting Noticed. This is an excellent resource for any author who doesn't know the first thing about websites, blogs as well as building a solid author platform and online presence. It's great to see a major publisher sharing this sort of information with the world, not just their own authors.
