Instragram! Contest! WINNER ANNOUNCED!

Like trying new things, even scary things?

This morning, after spending a couple of days learning the basic ropes of posting on Instagram and getting some followers; all it takes is a little time, trial and error, something even more grand is happening this morning.

If you're planning on attending the Simple Treasures Boutique in Farmington, Utah, from November 5-8, you may just want to get involved in a little Round Robin on Instagram.

I am @kj.books, so if you haven't already, you need to follow me so that you can get the Instagram I'll be sending at 10 a.m. If you're not set up with Instagram yet, hurry! I would hate you to miss all of the FREE stuff from various vendors that will be giving away $15 or more in savings at their gift shop!

Mark, get set, GO!

Winner is: @seeshelby!

Write Here In Ephraim Writer's Conference

WINNER IS ANNOUNCED! But room is still available at the conference!

If you're still wondering how to come up with the $20 bucks needed to attend the upcoming Write Here in Ephraim Conference, ($15 if you pay early) wonder no more!

Brent Boswell, one of the speakers at the conference, is giving $20 bucks to one lucky reader of his Facebook page. Just like or share (or both) and you're in! You can find him here.

And as a reminder, I will be teaching two classes on Marketing Your Book on a Budget. And yes, I will be giving away two copies of this book to two individuals who attend my class.

What could be better?

Marketing Your Book on a Budget

Today's post will be short but I wanted to let you in on a new booklet I'm working on that should be out in the next couple of months.

UPDATE: Release date March 21! Paperback $5.98, eBook $1.99.


If you've read "Marketing Your Book on a Budget 2012" then you should have a heads up on what is currently happening with book marketing. If you haven't, consider getting the 2013 edition; if you have, know that the 2013 edition will be giving you even more.

If you've wondered about reviews, book signings, interviews (both radio and blog) book trailers that won't cost you a dime to produce, social media, contests, free advertising and more, you'll want to check back.

The first time around, "Marketing Your Book on a Budget" was produced in Kindle form only for .99 cents. I have since discovered that there are many readers who also prefer the paper version, so expect to see this addition in the next few months.

Once you've purchased one copy of the book through Amazon, (and you let me know per instructions at the end of the book) you'll be on the list and I'll send you updates every year without you having to purchase another book!

So keep in touch!

Happy writing!
