"Over 75 Good Ideas for Promoting Your Book" is not the most
original title for a book, but it's certainly an accurate one.
This how-to booklet (it's only 72 pages) is filled to the
brim with tips and tricks for getting your newly published book covered in the
media and read by the masses. Each tip is highlighted in bold, with an
easy-to-follow explanation underneath. Side-bars provide extra insight into
promoting your work; instead of just saying to write a press release, this book
shows you how. Within these pages, you'll learn how to make a commercial, how
to get your book into bookstores and how to give testimonials.
Patricia L. Fry is the author of 10 books, so clearly she's
had practice in promoting her books. Though most of her tips seem like common
sense, they're presented in a straight, no-nonsense fashion that anyone can
follow.
If you've just finished writing your latest nonfiction book
or novel, start preparing your partials and query letters. Once you've mailed
them, immediately buy this book and map out your promotion strategy.
