Promote Books by Telling The Writer’s Story
Your potential
readers want to learn about you and “what makes you tick”.
We’ve all found writers whose books we love and we want to
know about them. This is an advantage that we have with the
internet. There are so many ways to interact with our
readers and potential readers. You have the chance to tell
potential readers who you are, why you became a writer and
why they have to read your books.
Reveal
Author Details to Readers
There could be
things about you that could be used to promote your books to
new readers. Are you a single parent who needed a way to
support your children but still being available for them? Do
you have a disabled child or family member who requires your
attention, but you still need to make a living? Mention this
to your potential customers. This is NOT meant to make them
feel sorry for you. It is a chance for people to learn what
attracted you to writing. You can connect with someone who
could be in a similar situation.
Authors Can
Become More Well Known to Readers
This helps make
writers more real to their readers. It helps them see you as
more than a faceless online entity. We are all people with
problems, challenges and who searched to find a solution for
our lives. It is very important not to make up a story about
yourself that isn’t true. Share your real story with
potential readers.
How To Draw
Media Attention For Your Books
The media loves a
good story and you can submit a press release to announce
the release of each book or maybe your new website. Find a
way to strike an emotional cord with the readers and you
will get their attention. You can gain lifelong fans by
letting them get to know you and understand more about your
work.
