Bookbaby Offers My New Book as Gift to Help Publishing Industry

As many of my SharingwithWriters blog subscribers and visitors know, I am a fan of what Bookbaby.com does for individual writers and the industry as a whole. They are conducting a survey today that they plan to share with others in the industry who can benefit from better data. I hope you will take a minute to participate in it and claim your free gift—one of which is an e-book copy of the third in my HowToDoItFrugally series, HowTo Get Great Book Reviews Frugally and Ethically: The ins and outs of usingfree reviews to build and sustain a writing career. (It will be released in paperback next week but you—my SharingwithWriters peeps—deserve this opportunity—to help our industry and to get the free book—if anyone does!

Keep writing and promoting!

PS: HERE IS THE INFORMATION AND LINKS DIRECTLY FROM BOOKBABY:

Calling all authors—both published and aspiring: We need your help. Self-publishing has evolved into an effective way to take your story directly to the marketplace. But getting published is only half the battle. Promotion and marketing is the self-published author’s next mountain to climb. This kind of work is often foreign and intimidating for authors. Writers just want to write, right? Honestly, things can be better, but not without your voice. How you can help BookBaby has teamed up with over 15 publishing industry partners to conduct what we believe will be the largest survey in self-publishing history. We’re asking over 1,000,000 writers - including YOU - to share your opinions, experiences, and goals as a self-publishing author. Our goal is to provide a comprehensive examination of book promotion and marketing by the self-publishing community. We’ll publish the results of this survey in early 2017 in hopes of helping authors make more informed decisions regarding their own promotional strategies. What you get in return As a thank you for sharing your experiences, BookBaby and its partners are offering a number of giveaways and promotions, including a chance to win a Complete Self-Publishing Package. Share your voice today 15-20 minutes is all it takes for you to contribute to the self-publishing industry’s progression and overall improved experience for all self-publishing authors.
