Happy Wednesday, y’all! We wanted to draw your attention to The Indie Writer Book Launch Guide by Yellow Bird client Scott Semegran. This is one of the best book-launch advice pieces we’ve seen. It's well organized, understandable, and thorough. If you’re exploring nontraditional publication routes, be sure to take a look. Below are some of the questions the guide answers:
Where and how do you get professional book reviews?
Which literary journals can/should you submit your book to?
Where do you go about finding book bloggers?
How can/should you take advantage of book-related social media sites like Goodreads, LibraryThing, and Riffle?
What is an ARC and why should I have one?
How and why should I do book giveaways?
How and where can I set up a book launch event?
How do I create a book trailer?
What’s a blog tour, and how can I set one up?
…And much, much more! Thank you, Scott, for bringing this guide to our attention!
