Incubation Press employs a team approach when working with authors. Depending on what you need, you’ll often have two or three of us working together on your book. So introductions are in order.
Linden Gross – Editorial & Project Management/Oversight
A two-time New York Times bestselling ghostwriter and an editor and writing coach to other bestselling writers, Linden has written, collaborated on or ghostwritten nine books, including the first book ever written about the stalking of ordinary people. The former travel editor for the Ladies’ Home Journal (part of her associate editor role), special features editor for the Los Angeles Times Magazine, and long-time national magazine freelancer draws on her background in writing, editing, and teaching when working with writers. She started Incubation Press when her writing-coach clients needed an option that would fit their budgets while allowing them to participate creatively in the self-publishing process.
Scott Burns – Website Development
As a kid, Scott was fascinated by technology, along with taking things apart (and sometimes even putting them back together again). He also always knew he wanted to be in business for himself. As a result, he founded a home theater company in Bend, Oregon, specializing in building, programming and installing $30,000 to $300,000 systems in luxury homes. Already a lifelong learner of business and marketing, he built the company into an over a million-dollar-a-year corporation before selling it in 2008 to focus on technology consulting and digital marketing. Over the past decade, he has supported, tutored, and coached over 600 clients needing tech help and developed several dozen websites.
Keri Barnum – Marketing
Keri is the owner and CEO of New Shelves Books, one of the country’s top agencies specializing in book sales and marketing.
