Wow! After hearing how slowly publishing works, to know that you can tell me in a week or so whether you've accepted my book is incredible. I'm so impressed with the speed of your operation.
Below are the answers to your questions. I will admit, I'm confused as I thought the publisher dealt with the marketing and the writer dealt with the writer.
Thanks for being willing to look at VENOM and I'm sure you'll love it
Q) How much time per week do you have available to help us market your work?
A)
I'm retired, so I have a lot of time. I want to see VENOM on the NY Times Bestseller list and will do anything to make that happen.
Q) How internet savvy and technical are you? Are you comfortable with new programs on the web? Do you have a blog? Do you post regularly? Please discuss.
A)
I'm not terribly good on the internet and use my grandson a lot for help. I'm not sure what a blog is and I don't know what you mean by "posting regularly."
Q) Would you prefer to market on the web or market by going out and visiting locations, giving talks or book signings? Some authors want to get out there, some want to market only on the web, and some will do both. Tell us about how you feel about selling activities. Some people are very
comfortable with public speaking and some are not.
A)
I want to do whatever promotes VENOM the best.
