September Hot List

ReadHowYouWant has begun a new promotional program. Each month, we will select new large print titles that either have sold extremely well in their trade editions or that we feel have good potential for high circulation in libraries. We will offer these titles at a special 40% discount to libraries if they order directly from us. They can also order these books through B&T, Brodart and Ingram at their negotiated discounts with these wholesalers.

Here is a link to our first Hot List.

Some of the top titles are Excuses Begone!, Dr. Wayne Dyer's newest book and a NYT bestseller, Investing For Dummies® from John Wiley, and Relative Danger by Charles Benoit.

Six New Publishing Partners

As a result of a busy BEA meeting schedule, RHYW has signed six new publishing partners. Hay House (Carlsbad, CA) publishes inspirational titles by leading authors, including Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, whose latest book, Excuses Begone! appeared last week as #1 on The New York Times bestseller list. Renowned scientific publishing company, Springer (New York, NY), will begin partnering with RHYW on the re-issue of the popular Cherry Ames nursing series. Poisoned Pen (Scottsdale, AZ) is an independent publisher specializing in high-quality mysteries. The Harvard Common Press (Boston, MA) is one of the nation's leading publishers of cookbooks and parenting books. New Harbinger Publications (Oakland, CA) was recently featured in Publishers Weekly as a growing publisher of self-help, psychology, and health titles. San Francisco publisher Cleis Press publishes provocative, intelligent books in the areas of sexuality, gender studies, and human rights.

Hay House (Carlsbad, CA) was founded by Louise Hay, author of You Can Heal Your Life, which went on to sell over 35 million copies (and it's said she is the second bestselling female author of all time, after J.K. Rowling). RECENTLY DUBBED "the closest thing to a living saint" by the Australian media, Louise L. Hay is also known as one of the founders of the self-help movement. Her first book, Heal Your Body, was published in 1976, long before it was fashionable to discuss the connection between the mind and body. Revised and expanded in 1988, this best-selling book introduced Louise's concepts to people in 33 different countries and has been translated into 25 languages throughout the world.

Hay House is known for its bestselling authors in the inspirational, health and healing genre, including:
Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, Louise L. Hay, Joan Borysenko, Ph.D., Doreen Virtue, Gregg Braden, Sylvia Browne, Esther and Jerry Hicks (The Law of Attraction), Dr. Christiane Northrup, Montel Williams, and Suze Orman.

We will be starting out with all of Dr. Wayne Dyer's titles--including Excuses Begone!--as well as all of Louise Hay's titles, and more (essentially a combination of Hay House's top authors and top 100 bestselling titles).
