Find ways that work for you, whether it is a traditional ad, social media post, or something unique that you create on your own.

Go to where your audience is and bring your books to them. Remember to market your book at every opportunity.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything!
