Sought-After Guest Soars on Authors Access Radio

Frugal Message Hits Top Spot for AuthorsAccess Listeners

Ann Arbor, MI--Cohosts of Authors Access radio, Victor R. Volkman and Irene Watson, announced multi award-winning author Carolyn Howard-Johnson was the #1 most popular guest on AuthorsAccess.com podcasts for the year 2008.

Volkman says, "With more than 1,000 listeners this year, Carolyn again proved the lasting power of her Frugal Book Promotion message. Not only is her message popular, but it's way out in front of all the other guests, the 2nd most popular podcast was 20% behind Carolyn's.  We wish Carolyn continued success in 2009 and we are certain her message will become even more important as economic turmoil continues."
