Wanted: Author Interviews, Character Interviews, Book Trailers

It's that time again to start thinking about the holidays. No kidding.

Come September, the rush is on to get those books out for holiday sales. Do you want to be a part of the rush? Let me know and I'll set up an author and/or a character interview with you.

So far, everything is scheduled out until October 10th, so anything after that is fair game. I usually post interviews on Monday's and Wednesday's with a Friday Flicks segment on, you guessed it, Friday's.

A am looking for authors in various genres to spotlight. Please send me an email at: kathy@ariverofstones.com and we'll discuss when we can place you. 

Things will be getting busy. Why not get your interview ready before the rush?

Thanks!

What Would You Say to Some FREE Book Advertising?

I'm continually amazed at how many writers spend little time marketing their work. Obviously, a writer should write more than they market, but how are those potential readers ever going to discover you if you don't get the word out?



No, I'm not doing any character or author interviews until September, but I will need to hear from you before then if you're interested. Who wouldn't want the FREE advertising? If you also have a terrific book trailer, let me know. I will slot you for my Friday Flicks segment.

So, what are you waiting for?



Let me know today, right here, or shoot me an email at: Kathy@ariverofstones.com! Let me know what you write and what you'd like to do to promote your work. I'll take it from there.

2 Great Sites to Help You Advertise Your Free eBook

Since I am gearing up for book promotion for my new book, The Feast, I thought you might be interested in knowing some of the new things I will be trying.

With my 3-day Free Promotion with Amazon, I have typically posted the news on this blog and to my social media friends. I have also given out the word to Morgen Bailey, who is always happy to post the free news in her 5 a.m. Flash page. But until recently, I had tried little else to help me get the word out when it came to promoting my eBook during the 3-day promo.

I have since discovered 2 new places that I'll be trying this time around. Here they are:

1) Freebooksy

2) Frugal Freebies (books and other free stuff)

When it comes to advertising, I rarely consider the paid variety, especially when there are so many free ways to get the word out.

Have any of you tried Freebooksy or Frugal Freebies? If so, I'd love to hear from you.
