Random Acts of Publicity Week Sept. 7-11

September 2, 2009 Uncategorized No Comments

One of the benefits of writing for children is the close community of writers and illustrators at our fingertips–in spite of the self-imposed isolation that writing/illustrating requires. On one of my many listserves, I came across an announcement by Darcy Pattison about a program she is starting called Random Acts of Publicity Week. I love the simplicity and camaraderie behind Darcy’s venture and urge you to support her. In her own words:
Are you like me? I always promise myself that today I’ll write a review of my friends’ books and actually post them on Amazon or Library Thing or somewhere. But do I? No. That’s about to change!

I know how wonderful it is to see new reviews on Amazon of one of my books. I know that it’s better to give than to receive. This week, I vow to put these two things together and give friends some support for their books.

So, I’m declaring next week, September 7-11, as the RANDOM ACTS OF PUBLICITY WEEK, a week when you do something to promote a friend’s book, or to promote a recent book you’ve read. I’ll post an introduction on Monday, but because of the holiday we won’t get started with the ACTS until Tuesday.

Visit Darcy’s blog today to sign up for Random Acts of Publicity Week.
