Wow!
Over the last three weeks, I have been writing a new book. One of those ideas
that jumps inside your head and you have to work on it straight away. If you
haven't had one of these yet, trust me, you will.
I am
now on 30,000 words, the cover is done, it's listed on Goodreads(you'll get the
link in a minute) and my marketing strategy has begun. I said it at the start
and I'll say it again … WOW!!
It
is in a new genre for me; dystopian with a YA flavour as well. The main character
is a sixteen year old girl.
I'm
also running my marketing a little differently too. Facebook is not going to
feature prominently with this book. Wait? Did I just type that? Let me check …
Facebook is NOT going to feature prominently with this book. Yeah, I must have.
So,
why not? Well, I'm crazy like that. But, I decided to do it that way. I still
don't like Facebook as a marketing tool, believe it or not. It's crowded. It's
the busy party or nightclub where you are on one side and your friend is right
over the other side. You shout and shout to get their attention but they JUST
DON'T HEAR YOU!!
I
won't say exactly how I'll market, but if you hear about the book, I'm doing it
right :)
Plus,
I get to be sneaky. Ooh, I love the sneaky! ;)
Do
you ever watch a commercial on the television, or see a link on the internet,
perhaps a flyer handed out to you? You know the ones, they are very vague and
make you WANT to know more.
Here's
the link for Goodreads; https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18323073-the-long-journey-to-sincerity
If you could all add it to your TBR lists, and suggest it to your friends on
there, that would be sooooo helpful.
I
hate to blog and run, but I am on a roll with this and I must keep the creative
streak flowing! I'll follow up on progress in the next blog … :)
