My only tidbit is Talli Roland had a Book Launch yesterday that was lots of fun. People wrote interesting posts to help promote the book. If I ever have a book coming out, I'm going to have to be creative like her.
ReplyDeleteHi Karen .. there's lots of ideas - it's starting the process isn't it .. and working through with your beliefs .. slow, but sure ..
ReplyDeleteAs Theresa says .. Talli's book launch is a great idea, as is KarenGs BBQ fest, as is Arlee's A - Z Challenge ..
Cheers .. Hilary
