Happy Wednesday, y’all! We wanted to draw your attention to The Indie Writer Book Launch Guide by Yellow Bird client Scott Semegran. This is one of the best book-launch advice pieces we’ve seen. It's well organized, understandable, and thorough. If you’re exploring nontraditional publication routes, be sure to take a look. Below are some of the questions the guide answers:

  • Where and how do you get professional book reviews?

  • Which literary journals can/should you submit your book to?

  • Where do you go about finding book bloggers?

  • How can/should you take advantage of book-related social media sites like GoodreadsLibraryThing, and Riffle?

  • What is an ARC and why should I have one?

  • How and why should I do book giveaways?

  • How and where can I set up a book launch event?

  • How do I create a book trailer?

  • What’s a blog tour, and how can I set one up?

…And much, much more! Thank you, Scott, for bringing this guide to our attention!
