As Donna said, it is good to find efficient methods of marketing that leave an author more free to write, as part of selling more books is getting second, third and more books out there. It might be your third book that gets someone's attention and then they buy them all. I'd love to win your book.Debra Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03256313302199653185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1468408049385716410.post-69966834213543335212011-09-19T15:17:56.501-06:002011-09-19T15:17:56.501-06:00This sounds like a "must-have" book for ...This sounds like a "must-have" book for all of us! It certainly is a struggle to market on your own, experimenting and failing, spending money and learning, so anything that can help us avoid some of the pitfalls is valuable information.

I need something I can do to promote my books that still leaves a little time to write more books. The idea of selling to my neighbors is a good one and not something I've focused on doing so I look forward to learning more of what you have to say.Donna Hatchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05807169149057139718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1468408049385716410.post-35585118178259781582011-09-19T13:38:30.943-06:002011-09-19T13:38:30.943-06:00Joanne, Haley and Celia,

We're always editing each other's work. <br /><br />Best wishes getting your books out there.
