iUniverse Announces Underwriting Sponsorship of Nationally Syndicated Public Radio Program

Bloomington, Ind. (PRWEB) April 30, 2008 -- iUniverse (http://www.iuniverse.com), the leading book marketing, editorial services, and supported self-publishing (http://www.iuniverse.com/why-iuniverse/supported-self-publishing.htm) company, announced that effective May 1, it will underwrite the nationally syndicated public radio show A Way with Words. The sponsorship will help iUniverse reach out to the show's growing audience of word aficionados, many of whom aspire to publish a book (http://www.iuniverse.com/contact/).

"The A Way with Words audience is a critical demographic for iUniverse. They are intelligent, well-read, and many have a book in them and are actively seeking a publisher," said Kevin Weiss (http://authorsolutions.com/ExecutiveProfile.html), chief executive officer of Author Solutions, parent company of iUniverse.

A Way with Words is a lively hour-long public radio show about language, on the air since 1998. Co-hosts Martha Barnette, who has published two books with iUniverse, and dictionary editor Grant Barrett take calls about slang, grammar, old sayings, word origins, regional dialects, family expressions, and speaking and writing well.

Barnette's two iUniverse books, both Editor's Choice titles, have been top sellers for the self-publisher. "A Garden of Words" takes a witty look at the name origins of garden plants. "Ladyfingers and Nun's Tummies" provides the surprising truths behind the names of many favorite foods.
