TESTIMONIALS for Book Promotion Newsletter
"Love that newsletter of yours. Sometimes I print it out to take it when
I know I'll have to wait. Better than waiting room magazines!! ......... I've
made so many really good web/author friends through your newsletter. Your
newsletter is well worth the pittance you ask for it. Hope everyone on your list
who is even thinking about a book will turn over a new leaf for New Years and
re-subscribe to learn more about publicizing their books. " Carolyn
Howard-Johnson, award-winning author of THIS IS THE PLACE (AmErica House 2001),
HARKENING: A COLLECTION OF STORIES REMEMBERED (AmErica House 2002) and THE
FRUGAL BOOK PROMOTER: HOW TO DO WHAT YOUR PUBLISHER WON'T (Star Publish 2004).

***"Thanks for sending me information about your Newsletter. The 'Carolyn
Howard-Johnson' name in the subject line helped get my attention (we are good
friends and supporters, personally and professionally). Despite the foregoing, I
was not planning to subscribe to your newsletter -- I get enough of them as it
is, and the daily e-mails are driving me bananas! Then I made a
biiiiiiiiiiiiiggggg (that is: BIG!!!!) mistake -- I decided to check out a
couple of your newsletters (Nov. and Dec. '04) -- and I was hooked! And even
pleased (!!!) to pay the nominal $5 annual fee.
***"I found your newsletters so well organized (good categories). They are
informative and filled with valuable information. I found Richard Laermer's
article, "PR Dude Gets on TV...and Goes for Broke" in the December
issue, delightful and instructive. I found "Wonderful Websites" in
your November issue providing me with new information that I could use.
"So, you got me -- and the check will be in the mail!"

***"I'm writing my first book, so I want to promote it well when it's
finished. I feel like I got lucky in finding you and your subscribers before
publishing it." Beth Davis. www.handanalyst.com
***"This is the most informational newsletter pertaining to publishing that
I've received, and there've been-a-bunch...This last newsletter [July 21, 2004]
was so filled with good info. Every struggling writer should subscribe to
it."." Rick Magers, author of BLUE WATER ADVENTURE, based on his years

***"Thank you for putting forth so much effort for your subscribers!"

***"You continue to offer a VARIETY of perspectives and insights that come
from authors' real experiences. As an author who wants to keep on writing and
publishing I find your newsletter to be both grounding and inspiring. Thank you.
Partially, because of you, I'm considering 'self publishing' for my next
book...I continue to appreciate your newsletter. My new book, LIFE'S TOO SHORT
TO DRINK CHEAP WINE: A SALUTE TO FRIENDSHIP, was published last week by Classic
Day Publishing (a self-publisher in Seattle, WA)...I plan to use many of the
astute marketing tips that you generously share in your letters and keep the
words 'belief' and 'persistence' in my mind's eye [July 7, 2004 issue] "
