Sounds like these are pre-pub copies. Are these ARCs or regular books? Obviously, this requires arrangement ahead of time with the publisher. So much to do, so little knowledge, and everything keeps changing. Thanks for plowing ahead and letting us know.Richard Mabryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15993592219849830777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-38444225890312442692016-04-14T09:13:11.239-04:002016-04-14T09:13:11.239-04:00I'm so glad you're posting about this!

I'm interested because my first book (traditional publisher) is scheduled to be at the printer's by May 1. My book is in quite a different genre than your books--history, academic--but I see possibilities for using a Street Team to promote it, too. I hope you'll keep the readers of The Write Conversation updated on your progress so that I can grow along with you.Dennis L. Petersonhttp://dlpedit.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
