On-Line Promotion - Another Point of View

Hi Everyone:

Happy TGIF!!

Thought you might find this post: The Bottom Line on On-line Promo and the comments it received interesting.


The article brings up several interesting points relative to the revolution of the on-line romance community as well as some of the struggles we authors face in our attempt to reach our target audience via on-line promotion. I'm an advocate of on-line promotion, but with anything else, there are pluses and minuses to consider with any promotion campaign.

However, the most valuable point made in this post was this:



"And then you forget about the Internet, and you sit down and write the best damn book you can, because absolutely nothing sells like an actually good book that everyone starts talking about. Word of mouth still works best, even in the 21st century."

As an author, the one and only thing I have complete autonomy over is my story.

Have a great weekend!!


Until next time - stay well and be blessed.

Hi Gang:

Happy TGIF!! We made it through another week.

Every author is asked, "What inspired you to write this story?" Well, if you stop by The Story Behind the Book, you'll get a chance to find out the method to my madness for writing When A Man Loves A Woman.

Also, let me send a special shout out to all the wonderful hosts for this week's tour: Romancing The Blog, The Romance Readers Connection, Bloggin Bout Books, The Book Marketing Buzz, Bergers Book Reviews, and Connie Briscoe.
