The Barkle Defined (as Created by Susan James): A Combination of Book and Article with an Assigned Monetary Value.
How and Why The Barkle Was Born: There was a gap between great articles written and used for online promotion, usually very short, offered for free, and the full book/ebook versions of same, usually much longer and with a monetary value. The Barkle fills that Gap. A Barkle is usually a bit longer than the usual article used for free online promotion and audience expansion, while still offering useful information, stories and insights. The Barkle is always much shorter than an actual book, in either print or electronic form, while a bit longer than the usual free online versions of particular subject matter.. (Susan James)
