My Achy Breaky Head

Urgh! I have a horrible headache. From physical causes and from the inevitable weekly hours spent on attempting to promote the book. I have to contact Book Promotions. I wanted them to get going on a new campaign for me but apparently they didn't get my most recent email. I'm also attempting to simplify things and get rid of some extraneous email addresses that have become too cluttered. I need one for business contacts, one for my millions of fans (hold on a minute, I need to stop laughing) and one for personal contacts. I've started using Care2 email for the personal contacts. The advertising that comes with the email is all about socially relevant causes and I get alerts about social and environmental issues such as Japan's continued hunting of whales. Shame!

I think one of my new years resolutions needs to be condense and simplify. Which may be as unrealistic as losing 50 pounds this year but I think I need to start aiming high again.

Hope your upcoming year is splendid!

Author's Promotion

If you have a book out that you need pimped but don't have a lot of money to spend on advertising, you need to go to Author's Promotion. This UK-based company has fair prices and will work hard for you. They will review your book and create a promotional website, handle an adwords campaign for the site, and have numerous other helpful services. The basic service is US $599. Tell them that Lily Strange sent you. I'm not a paid endorser--I don't get anything but good karma for informing you of this service. But I do use them and believe that any new author would be advised to try them as well.
Peace,
Lily
