Campbell started her career with the hope of discovering what it takes to become a successful author. Fifteen years later, as a published author, Director of Events for a major trade publisher, and an author consultant, it's safe to say that she's uncovered a few secrets.
"Through my experience I have developed a keen sense of how an author can achieve a winning book campaign. It includes publicizing, marketing, and positioning both who you are as an author and what your book is about, plus one other essential ingredient: PASSION." --P.J. Campbell
Already a LifeTips Book Series record breaker,101 Author Tips: Creating a Successful Book Campaign is an essential guide to the post-publication process. Her clear, concise, and compelling advice is condensed into 101 easy-to-read tips on everything an author, novice or professional, needs to know to organize a successful book campaign.
"In 101 Author Tips: Creating a Successful Book Campaign, P.J. Campbell reminds aspiring authors that, once your book is written and published, you're nowhere near finished with it--that aside from being your labor of love, a book is a commodity that should pay the bills," said Holly Bauer, Book Publisher at LifeTips. "Many of us assume that the publisher takes care of the actual selling of a book, but this is only partly true. P.J. teaches us that, while most publishers do have a hand in the promotion of their books, there are myriad steps that authors can take to complement and enhance these efforts."
In August, Campbell will embark on a tour of summer speaking engagements across the country. Each stop will highlight the points of her book and give audiences more insight into her enthusiasm for publishing.
Her scheduled engagements:
9/12: Book Passage, Corte Madera, CA Writers' Workshop
10/10: St. Louis Big Read Book Festival
10/20: Oceanside Library, Oceanside, NY
