My online courses-on-demand have been so popular, that I’ve decided to add another category. I’ve been teaching 3 successful online courses featuring article-writing, how to write a book proposal and self-publishing for several years. Starting in January, I’ll offer a 6-week Personalized Book Promotion course for authors of both fiction and nonfiction books. This includes memoirs, most children’s books (for children ages 8 and over) and books of poetry. It doesn’t matter if you are an author with a brand new book or you’ve been marketing your book for years.
The course fee is $200.
Prerequisite: I want to know about your current book marketing plan—what promotional activities you have pursued, to what extent and your degree of success. I’ll also want to know about your limitations—what are you able and willing to do/unable and unwilling to do?
Here’s how a course-on-demand works: You sign up with me (payment by credit card or check in advance). You tell me when you want to start and I will send you a lesson and an assignment each week for 6 weeks thereafter. The lessons will go out to you on consecutive weeks—no skipping.
Additional information about this course will appear at my website soon. In the meantime, let me hear from you if you have an interest in this new course and if you have questions.

Promotion and marketing are foreign to most authors, yet so important to the success of any book. Sign up for this course and learn how to successfully promote and sell your particular book in the highly competitive world of bookselling. Become aware of useful resources. Learn new techniques. Most of all, be willing to step outside your comfort zone and stretch, at least a little. Let Patricia Fry help you to find your hook(s), discover your true audiences and locate them, determine appropriate promotional ploys, locate the resources you need to successfully implement your marketing plan and offer direction toward the successful launching (or re-launching) of your book.
