A Library Request Chain
After attending Caroline Miller’s talk on book marketing earlier this month, I’ve been thinking about how to get my book into libraries. Miller suggested asking your friends to request it, using either the paper or online forms or just a face-to-face conversation with the person in charge of acquisitions. The more I thought about it, the more it seemed to make sense to look beyond my circle of face-to-face friends. Thus, I would like to set up a library request exchange.

In addition to making a huge dent in your word count goals, you can learn a lot about yourself. Do you get bored holed up in your writing area all day? Does your family intrude during your writing hours? Do you work better before or after you shower and get dressed? Is your writing space comfortable enough to put in a full day’s shift?

Build Your Online Press Kit
Do you have a press kit? I didn’t until recently, even though, as a working journalist, I know how essential an online press kit is to the media. So, I pulled mine together and posted it today. It is a work in progress, and I intend to continue adding more to it as needed. What are the basic components of an online press kit? Bio: Use an inverted pyramid when writing your bio. Include the essentials in the first few sentences, then move into your qualifications, writing history, and education. Samples: Link to your favorite writing samples.
