Promotion People

Yes, you know Hubby wrote a book. It's out there on Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, Black Opal Books, and who knows where else. But, for me, it's all about how to promote it. He has friends that are authors, and radio people, but he also has friends from back in the day who are Promotion People! 

We are worried about over-hyping on facebook and twitter, but as one of our friends, who is a big-time promotion guy (then and now), says, go big or go home.

Okay. We'll do it. We are going for it! Morning shows, interviews, book signings. We are doing it! It's a full-time job. The more we do, the more we realize we need to do.

And then there is everyday reality. A strange combination.

  2. I know nothing about this but I have a twitter/blogger friend who is in the process of promoting her books. She & her husband started a publishing company and have a blog that sometimes gives tips on self promotion. Their site is www.skipjackpublishing.com You seem to have plenty of people to lean on but their blog might give you some other ideas. Good Luck!
