The Fun in Taking Your Book Launch Virtual

August 25, 2014

Dear Editor logoWay back in the Dark Ages before social media gave us Facebook, Twitter, and the ability to blog, writers would celebrate their book publications with big signings or launch parties involving food and libations. We can still do that—and often do—but thanks to the current state of social media we can party in a bigger way… a virtual way.

I’m doing that for my new book, WRITING NEW ADULT FICTION. My editorial background allows me to go an extra step and give back to writers who want to celebrate with me, so anyone stopping by my week-long virtual launch gets not only a peak at some info and WritingNewAdultFictionwriting tips from the book, but also a shot at a daily free manuscript critique and a full manuscript edit on the last day of the launch. Giving those things away makes me feel good about the publicity part of a launch, and it makes the week truly feel like “party” to me.

The details:  Daily “free critique” giveaways and a grand finale “Full Manuscript Edit” giveaway all this week to celebrate the publication of WRITING NEW ADULT FICTION. Visit DearEditor.com Aug 25-29.
