101 Author Tips: Creating A Successful Book Campaign

The book is finally finished and currently being edited. Yes, that's right I finished my book, 101 Author Tips: Creating A Successful Book Campaign. Yeah! I have a new found respect for authors having gone through this process. It was and is so exciting! I'm ready to start another.

But, for the next few months and moving forward, the majority of my free time must go to publicizing and promoting the book. That's the one thing that many authors don't realize. Just when you think you're finished with the book and you can take a breather, you have to put on your publicity and marketing hats. Without publicity and marketing your book will remain unknown.

So, today I'm formulating my plans and getting ready to launch them in the next two weeks in preparation for the release in May 2009.

I have already lined up a book launch event at Book Revue in Huntington, NY on June 9, 2009 at 7:00pm. So, it's begun, but there's a lot more work to do.

I'll keep you posted as I progress through the campaign.

Cheers!
