39 Reasons Why You Should Write a Book

Comments

  1. Hi John, I can’t find out how to submit an award winning middle-grade fantasy book for review on Pop-Sugar. M.J. Evans

  2. I write contemporary erotic romance published by reputable romance publishers who rely on the authors to handle the marketing aspect. Even though my books have excellent reviews, I haven’t found a way to boost sales. If a reader finishes one of my books, she usually buys the others, but I’m still not making consistently significant sales. I need advice that’s tailored to romantic fiction, please. Please. Please.

  3. I’m not sure you can submit it for review, but you can certainly join the site and blog about it on Circle of Moms. Or connect with some of the bloggers on Circle of Moms and offer a review copy to them.

    You can also submit the book for review in some of the discussion groups (communities) that would be interested in the topic.

  4. Sharon . . . There are tons of ways to build your audience but I certainly can’t answer them all here (at least not in detail). But here are a few general ideas:

    An erotic romance podcast – certain to be a hit.

    Sharing of your erotic romance writings on various websites (targeted and general). Lots of great high-traffic websites where you could share your writings.

    Building relationships with top bloggers and websites targeted to your audience.

    And, for PopSugar, create relationships with those blogging or writing about love and sex (big topic on PopSugar). Show them how your erotic romances will enhance couple sex.

    That’s just the beginning.

  5. Hi John. I understand there may be more than 37 or more than 1000 or even a million ways why one should write a book yes, but there may not be even one way into selling it. What i mean is that selling a book is very hard as i still cant figure out how to sell mine after 3 months.

  6. Selling a book is tough. It takes lots of work. Tough, sometimes time-consuming, work – building relationships with editors, producers, bloggers, website editors, columnists, podcasters, etc. But it pays off if you build relationships with the right people – like the PopSugar people if you have a book that fits one of their categories.
