Is It Author or Public Relations?


- ATLANTA, GA, October 21, 2005 - With the growth of published books hitting 175,000 thus far this year, authors are pivotal when it comes to marketing and promoting their works, themselves, and or their expertise.

The competition is strong among the new and seasoned authors. At this juncture what can one do to elevate ones" self? "Be coming an author has forced me to step outside of myself," says author C.F Jackson. "It has become creatively challenging for me to push myself on a daily bases. One of the hardest tasks I"ve had to give birth to is persistence."

Many writers and authors fall into a fantasy world that once their book is printed and binded all will flock to it. Like any service and or product, marketing is the key. Some valid key points in marketing are as follow:


- think outside-of-the-box
- market everyday
