You worry about promoting it, will it sell, will people like it? I went around to bookstores and introduced myself. You can consign it at local independent bookstores if you have any.Other than that, though, it's just a lot of praying and hoping!Stephanie Farishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461865229341760836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3589035973172290745.post-45122952721199472014-05-07T19:53:32.703-05:002014-05-07T19:53:32.703-05:00Fabulous trailer!!

They'll spike, then they'll drop and you'll wonder if anyone will ever read you book. Give it time, persistence in promotion, and above all, more works.
