Although I had looked forward to broadcasting for a community radio station later this month, a funny thing happened on the Internet. I discovered a busy book marketing company, with Artificial Intelligence-embraced information that directed my phone conversation to a stone’s throw from Silicon Valley. Their business card confirms its location.
Since I watched the hilarious sitcom on HBO, how could I resist?
Consequently, I’ve become drawn in. And here’s what it means. Plans are under way to raise my book’s visibility, while holding onto great reviews.
Just because the 19 literate reviews on my book page average 4.9 on Amazon’s 5-point scale, making it a good read to the world at large, here’s the question. Why does it make sense to limit sales of If I Said That I Would Love You to Amazon only? That doesn’t make sense. Some of you even confided to me that you will never order books from Amazon for political reasons. I shouldn’t have overlooked your practice.
Therefore, the wheels of universal availability are now in motion.
Just to confirm what it means, I checked with a staff member at Farley’s Bookstore in New Hope, Pa., saying I used to write for the Bucks County Herald, and that my forthcoming book reveals an unsavory experience at the (Columbus)/American Boychoir in Princeton. From her reaction, she appeared convinced that bookstores in Bucks and Mercer counties might want books, too,
I’d love that.
Personally, I would take advantage of every reasonable opportuity that came my way. If this resonates with your ideals and your common sense, I say go for it.
Great!
All the best in your new direction. I like your idea of direct contact with independent bookstores
Yes, it’s a big world out there, and selling on Amazon is only a good start. It should be shared widely in places where people will read and talk about it.
Harleys book store is now half its size having split into two stores. It’s a lot tidier and still in the towns central location.
The pedestrian traffic in now very dense which will be good for sales .
