Image
Indeed, they are. The book reviews are now coming in for  The Book That Almost Got Me Fired  by Kelly James -- and all 5 stars. Check out this on by Jennifer Nelson on Goodreads: "With edgy candor, James takes us along with her into her insightful journey back to corporate life in her 50s to snag health insurance and a regular paycheck. Surrounded by headphone wearing Millennials who don't converse much and a passive aggressive boss who doesn't know how to manage his inquisitive, smart, and outgoing new employee, James makes a series of "new-to-corporate-life" classic mistakes and brings us with her as she navigates the journey. An honest, funny, and sometimes cringe-worthy look into life as a middle-aged mom working for the man." CURRENTLY #3 ON AMAZON'S LIST OF HOT NEW RELEASES. Book description: You're 52. Divorced. Single mom to a teenaged son and a tween daughter. Happily self-employed but worried about the cost of health insurance, the inevitab

A Publisher's Conversation with Authors: Inexpensive Book Marketing

Image
  It is Tuesday. Time to tall turkey. Monday's madness is over, and Wednesday will take us over the hump, so Tuesday it is--for some serious discussion with authors. Tuesday talks mean to address authors in waiting and self-published authors who would like to go a more traditional route or who would at least like to take their steps with a publisher by their side. Today's topic is about how to market books inexpensively. If you have big pockets, go for the television, radio, newspaper, and saturation ads. Buy time on radio and television shows. However, most authors do not have deep pockets. So, looking at inexpensive ways to get the word out is not only necessary but sometimes the only way to market a book. This post describes some sources and activities for inexpensive marketing. It is, of course, not complete. Do all these things, then seek out more opportunities, or start again with another virtual blog tour. Things to do (not necessarily in any kind of order) Word of mouth

Here are samples/excerpts from the reviews: Road Map to Powe r by Syed Arshad Husain and A. Darius Husain is a ground breaking self help book that touches on the history and pitfalls of human society. Road Map to Power is well-written and very readable.
