Carolyn Howard-Johnson''s book, The Frugal Book Reporter, is for writers who want to learn how to write, publish and market your book. There is good news in her book and bad news. I''ll give you the good news first. The good news is if you can talk, you can write a book. If you want to go green, you can even publish for free on MySpace or create ebooks and/or talking books. The bad news is "You have to sell yourself before you can sell your book. Carolyn gives us many ways to do this. I agree with Carolyn who says "Publishing is a great adventure!"
I liked the fact that this book helps us beginners as well as the more experienced. I began using her ideas over a year ago. Now I'm rereading it. I am at a place in my work where I am a little more experienced in promoting. Lately, I've been picking up on her ideas that flew way over my head when I first read the book. I would recommend this book as a "have-to-have" for beginning writers, publishers and/or promoters.
"Psychology journals are full of information about the fear of success or rejection." Her words. I think most writers walk with the fear of rejection when it comes to promoting our work. I'm thinking if there is no fear there is no passion. Writers got to have passion to inspire our readers. Carolyn has got more than passion. She has a great smile. She is generous with her time. She is not afraid to put herself out there for the sake of others. A Five-Star book in my opinion.
