Confession: I have no idea how to market a
self-published book. Absolutely none. Every time I try to research the idea, my
eyes glaze over after a few excruciating sentences and my mind wanders to
pirate ships, mysterious forests, or the Wild West.
Shockingly, I actually did well in school.
My plan right now is to get 100 first
copies printed of my book, go to local bookstores, and try to convince the
owner to carry a few copies of my book. Maybe (gulp) try to convince someone to
let me do a book signing.
The very idea makes my right eye twitch.
There’s got to be a better way, right? Please,
my self-publishing compadres, help a sister out! How do you market your book?
