This group focuses on book marketing, promotion, and publicity. In other words, How do authors go about finding readers and building their fan bases?

This is an international group of authors, publishers, editors, publicists and others involved in the book industry. Posts primarily deal with the final stages of book production and pre- and post-release marketing strategies. All questions relating to traditional, self-published print or ebooks are warmly encouraged. All postings are proprietary and belong to the poster and the site owner.

Feel free to post tips, innovative promotions, new marketing avenues and, by all means, share your successes to inspire others. Please do not post excerpt texts, instead post a URL where your excerpt can be found.

Debate is a great thing provided we all remember that we're on the same side. Flaming is not allowed. We're all here to learn.

Warning! This is not a chat room. Send personal messages off list.

Here's to everyone's commercial success!
