My release month continues and one thing I did last weekend was to visit a couple of bookstores for drive-by signings.
In case you aren't familiar with the term, it means you drive up, walk in, sign stock, and go on your merry way. Fast and easy and a great way to bring some attention to your books, because you can put the special stickers on the front that tell customers it's a signed book!
Next, I want to thank the nice bloggers who have hosted me on their blogs the past couple of weeks to celebrate the release of CHASING BROOKLYN.
Georgia McBride is curious about my high school days and why I liked them.
Creative A wants to know one thing about CHASING BROOKLYN you wouldn't know from the description of the book.
The Book Butterfly asks me about the challenges of writing a book with a dual narrative.
The Book Butterfly asks me about the challenges of writing a book with a dual narrative.
The Story Siren wants to know if I get emotional while I write my books.
Tabitha Olson is curious about the title and how I came up with it.
The Fantastic Book Reviewer wonders if I set out to make people cry.
The Page Flipper wants to know how I come up with the names of my characters.
And finally, Shannon Messenger asks me for secrets for unpublished writers on the path to publication. And I actually come up with one!
It's been a busy and fun couple of weeks, and for all the people who have read CHASING BROOKLYN, blogged about it, reviewed it on Amazon, goodreads or Barnes and Noble, told friends about it, etc. etc., let me just say
THANK YOU!!!
That is the cutest little video and I love learning that you can do drive-by signings. It has such spontaneous joy about it!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant idea to video and post about this, Lisa. What's on the video has been my experience, too. Love drive-by signings, I think they're fun!
ReplyDeleteThat was such a cute video! :D
ReplyDeleteThat's my favorite kind of drive-by I've ever seen!
ReplyDeleteIt's funny but the word 'cute' came to my mind, too! What a great choice for a vlog. I wouldn't have known how easy it is to drive-by-and-sign. I will definitely follow through on this. Thank you, Lisa!
ReplyDeleteAw, what an adorable video. You really have the cutest voice. It makes me smile every time I hear it. I'm SO glad Chasing Brooklyn has had such a great release and that I could have a tiny part of it. Thank you for giving me the chance. You're the best!
ReplyDeleteDrive by book signings!!! I love it.. had no idea. Seems so simple and fun and a terrific way to sell more books.
ReplyDeleteSo glad I 'drove' by here this morning. You made me smile. And now -- of course, I want to read your book :)
cheers.
