My husband, who has a recording studio in our attic, is a bit appalled by the sound. (Ok, VERY appalled) and promises to help me get this right next time!

I wasn't able to find your original note. Just wanted to say I'm glad kofe is working for you. It’s always nice to feel appreciated. The fact that others wanted you to set up, suggests that you speak to your audience in a meaningful way that resonates.

You are so welcome! Are you writing a book? Or have you written one already?

I am a retired lawyer. Writing was my strong suit when I practiced law. But I am more of a reader now.

IMHO your writing is excellent — both content and style.

I am pretty much responsible for my disabled (younger)sister who has cerebral palsy, a seizure disorder, and MS. She is poor and so are the people who help her. Because I care so much about my sister and the women who help her, your writing speaks to me.

I appreciate how you are choosing to use your talents and your life.

Wow, you really made me smile. Thank you!

And bless you for taking good care for your sister. That sounds like a heck of a tough load.

This was interesting. For my first question, would you care to share any marketing tips? My book has been out for a bit and I have tried nearly everything I know of but I am constantly looking for more ideas.

Do you include a pitch or at least a link at the end of everything you publish? That’s my first tip! You can print the first chapter on all your platforms along with a purchase link.

Another idea is to find other writers whose books are similar to yours and may attract a similar audience and write a review of their book. This helps both of you. Conduct book signings in your area. After that, we can get into paid ads on Amazon or Facebook or promotion like The Fussy Librarian.
