Contact / Submitting Tips
I’m always looking for tips / suggestions that will help book publicists — if you are a publicist, a media person, with a bookstore or lecture venue, or anyone interested in publishing or the media, feel free to submit your pitching tips / ideas about the marketing and promotion of books in general.
I will post pretty much any information that is of use of book publicists. I will also name the person (first name only) who provided the tip unless you ask me not to. If you have submitted a tip and contact me within 24 hours of your name appearing on the blog, you will win a copy of the NPR Books Grid (that lists author, book, show name, interviewer, post-interview Amazon ranking, imprint and hyperlink to the online interview. Not so shabby, huh?)
Contact me at bookpublicityblog[at]gmail[dot]com.
No manuscript submissions, please.
I cover literary news and authors in the Bay Area and am always interested in hearing about new books and people on tour. There’s a rich writing community here, although we often get overshadowed by New York.
I’ve been enjoying your blog as I have a book coming out in the fall and am navigating the world of publicity.
