To Spread The Word

GEEnie

If any of you were to finish a novel, how would you go about letting people know about it?

I had the idea of printing leaflets out and having them sent out via a local newsagent, for a fee of course.

I know it's not an orthodox discussion, but if you were to get word out on anything, how would you folks do it?

  • I would use social media - and tell friends and family, then they can share it as well - get the word out there and build you up a following. A blog is a great way of doing this as well and it allows you to do updates about your book and future books and projects.

    Leaflets is a good idea, you could put some in your local shops if they allow and you could possibly hand some out too if you wanted to.

    That's a good idea. I've never tried a blog before. I'm always worried it'll end up going in the wrong direction with the audience. But then again, we have to be brave take these risks.

    If people like it, they will. If they don't, we'll, nothing ventured nothing gained. It's just an ambition after all :) Just to do something, and know that I did it. For better or worse :)

    Thanks friend. I'll keep it in mind :)
