Resource: Getting Reviews...and Reviewing!

In the Frugal Book Promoter I recommend reviewing as way network with other authors and the editors of review Web sites, magazines and journals. Now one of the lovely folks who offered to help me with my August book launch for Frugal and Focused Tweeting for Retailers: Tweaking Your Tweets and Other Tips for Integrating Your Social Media is starting a new review site. She already has a stable of reviewers and they are looking for more reviewers and books to read in all genres except porngraphy. Send your query letter to Ivy (at)Forloveofreading (dot) com.

This information comes from my newsletter. I repeat only about 5% of that newsletter in this blog, so if you want lots of other resources and ideas on reading, book promotion, writing craft, and publishing, please subscribe by sending me an e-mail with SUBSCRIBE in the header to hojonews (at) aol (dot) com.

  1. Thank you for the new review site, Carolyn! I have set a goal to send 3-5 queries a day for book reviews of my newest book. Will add this one on my list today.
