Event: May 10, 2025 Speaking Event: START YOUR BOOK LAUNCH PLAN BEFORE YOUR BOOK IS DONE
I will be speaking on the topic of Book Launch Plans at the May 10, 2025 Mount Diablo California Writers Club meeting from 11:15 till noon.
It may seem overwhelming to begin marketing when you are in the midst of editing to your manuscript or tweaking your book cover. But this is a critical step to maximizing the potential for a successful book launch. In this session, I will cover setting up Amazon ads, resources for mailing list management and
newsletter swaps, direct sale events, book blurbs, and social media options.
My talk will be followed by a buffet lunch and Allison Landa who will speak on the topic of What Can We Learn About Writing from Reality TV?
Location: Zio Fraedo’s Restaurant, 611 Gregory Lane, Pleasant Hill, CA 94523
Meeting Cost (includes buffet lunch): $30 Members and $35 Non-Members for early bird registration. Pay an additional $5 for registration at the door.
