It’s a great feeling to wake up and open up a newspaper or magazine to see your book reviewed. But what do we do with the good publicity? From my experience, something else has to happen, and social media is not necessarily the answer when good reviews result in occasional book sale spikes, but not overall trends. In this talk, I’d like to share what I learned about what we can do next to keep our book relevant, whether it’s been out on the market for six months or six years. I’ll tell you about some of my experiences in 2021 in the pre- and post-publication phases of publishing my memoir, The Wagamama Bride, and address the all-important question that we as authors ask ourselves. Did my book have an impact? Did it matter? What comes next?
When: Sunday February 20th
