Cool News !
One of our networking connections recently wrote a review for our writer's guidebook: Purple Snowflake Marketing: How to Make Your Book Stand Out in the Crowd
Jerry Harwood was featured on our blog earlier this year, and he invited us in for an author interview published on his blog as well. Our networking relationship continues as we come up with creative projects to work on. Jerry was kind enough to publish his take on our book with this review (below) on Goodreads. ** Thank you, Jerry :)

Dave and Lillian Brummet set out to give writers a clear path to success. They offer various preparatory steps, including some good material on self-care and time management. Then they seek to demystify the bookselling process in face-to-face venues. They discuss bookstores, smaller venues, libraries, and alternative places.
“If your book has ski content, for instance, visit ski shops to hold signings…”
The also lead you through your target groups to help you better identify your customer. The book offers several antidotes, encouragements, and examples along the way.
I often ask people why they got into writing. Seldom is it “to make lots of money.” Most writers wouldn’t turn down fame and fortune, but got into writing to tell a story.

“Many new authors feel the only way to succeed is through book signings and getting bookstores to stock their book. They are mistaken.”

This book is a refreshing counter to the many, many, many, many, many books out there on digital sales, FB ads, and internet marketing. There is something special about the live, in-person connection of an author and reader, perhaps even more-so now as we come out of Covid and quarantines.
