I remember back-in-the-day when being an author ment you hand over your book, they (the publishers) give you money, they wave their magic wand and your books would sell, sell, sell. Well, I don’t know if that world ever actually existed outside my own mind, but things just aren’t like that anymore. It seems every author needs to do self promo these days. My publisher mentioned it’s because of all the books out there now. With new publishing avenues such as self pub, vanity publishing, traditional and epub, there are just so many books of every genre out there.
So, my job as an author is to try and stand out. And let me tell you, it feels pretty overwhelming. But in the last two weeks I’ve gotten the website going, re-vamped the blog and gotten my author facebook page up. Now I just need to stand on a really tall box and shout out to passers by “Like Me!” Anyway, here’s the new page. I won’t shout at you, though. Just place this little non-intrusive link at the bottom of the post and hope you visit. Thanks!
