A big thank you to Dee Owen for posting my interview in her blog, Mum’s Writings, Mystery and More.  We authors are always looking for unique ways to promote our books. One idea is to create your own holiday, or even better, link your book to a holiday someone else has already created. A friend of mine just got out of a publishing contract because she hated the cover design they presented to her. Her gut told her it sent the wrong message. This may be the best decision she has ever made. On the first rainy night of the year, I was very concerned about how many people would come out for our presentation, “So You Want to Write a Book,” at the Clayton Library. Nothing is more off-putting than a blatant plea to “buy my book.” I see this on a number of sites I belong to along with “vote for my blog,” or “vote for my book trailer.” My reaction – hit the delete button. Now that I’m about to upload Husbands May Come and Go but Friends are Forever to Smashwords, I’m researching what other authors have done to promote their eBooks. I’m so happy to have been interviewed by Sci-Fi and Fantasy author, Daniel L. Carter. We authors know the importance of having a website as part of our marketing platform. But have you ever thought about the searchability of your domain name? While most in the publishing industry see these as passé, people still love them. I give a bookmark away with each book I sell. Husbands May Come and Go but Friends are Forever is sponsoring this week’s Just Write Blog. |
