I love reading your stories and looking forward to reading your blog.<br /><br />You may remember me as the mom to a child with epilepsy who contacted you about writing a children's book. Well after 1 1/2 years (which is quite embarassing) we have submitted the manuscript to two publishers. I'm sure I will have better empathy when I receive my rejection letters. Take care.<br />-AprilAprilnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1222341493607569034.post-9389950056512302532009-08-20T15:30:36.045-07:002009-08-20T15:30:36.045-07:00I love your title!

There are numerous shows out there and if you have an interesting book topic and are willing to dispense good, helpful info to the listeners you could be a guest. If you don't want to do that, just do your own podcasts and post them on your site/blog and send to your email list. It helps would-be readers of your books to start to get to know you. Plus, you can talk up your books as much as you please! K. Moehr, Success in 30!
