Great story as usual Sandy! It is always a pleasure to share your FB posts with my friends as well. Thank you for all you do to help authors learn the secrets of marketing their books. Old books bring back wonderful memories for many. Keep up your great work..

Flora, I’ve seen some of your posts from those author events, knew what you were doing, and smiled because it’s SO you — generous, thoughtful, and smart. Don’t you just love being able to use your phone to capture all of the moments you encounter?

Thanks for stopping by. I’m hoping we can meet in person one of these days!

Sandy

In reply to Karen Gowen. They are beautiful, Karen! And if it's a book I've read, I'm immediately transported back in time -- it's like hearing a favorite song from my "youth," you know? Sandy

Sandy, those three tips was like bases loaded. You got up and…wham, hit a home run. We writers are playing on a field of creativity. My favorite line was, “Originality definitely helps. Nobody sees things through the same lens as you. Your unique view matters.” In other words, we all swing different based on our DNA. Damn, I love playing this game. I get the feeling the same is true for you, Thanks for my Wednesday gift.

I love to Photoshop images, so the advice about visuals resonated for me. I haven’t told anyone,until now, that I keep a file called Useless Posters. I had an idea to use some of these images as backgrounds for quotes from my writer’s journal, like little posterettes. The first attempt a week or so ago was quite a spectacular flop. Only two people commented. But I’ve pushed many an elephant up many a hill — hey, wouldn’t that make a great poster? Thanks as always, Sandra!
