Confidantes,
Welcome to the Book Therapy thread!
Before we get started, LAST CALL FOR THIS CLASS ON 9/30:
PROMOTING YOUR BOOK AFTER THE PUBLICATION DATE (SEPT 30):

DATE: Monday, September 30
TIME: 1 PM EST to 2:30 PM EST
WHERE: ZOOM (A recording will be available after the course)
COST: $150
REGISTER HERE.
This community is for paid subscribers, and the goal is to create a safe space where you can ask questions about the publishing industry/process, book publicity, and marketing. It’s also a space where you can share what you’re worried about in book publishing.
Please post your questions in the comments, and I will answer them throughout the day & weekend. Please give me a little extra time this weekend. I am leaving on Saturday for parents’ weekend at my son’s college.
Some rules:
-Be respectful to me and others. Everyone’s experience is different. Be kind. Unkind comments will not be tolerated.
-If I don’t know the answer, I will tell you and try to provide a resource where you might find it.
-Please don’t use the comments to self-promote. That’s not what this thread is about.
-There’s no such thing as a stupid question. We don’t know what we don’t know!
-Please be patient. I’ll pop in and out to answer you.
-The more context you provide, the better response I can give you.
-Please allow me the weekend to answer your questions.
-Try to limit your questions to one comment so I can keep track of them and be fair to others with questions.
-I have the least experience in YA and kid’s books, so I don’t feel comfortable advising that territory.
-Due to the volume of emails I receive, I cannot answer individual questions when emailed.
-This is a community effort, so others may chime in with their own knowledge.
Ready? Go!
-Kathleen
