Yesterday, my 7th book was released.
After teaching seminars on publishing and promoting for almost six years, I finally got my act together and put them into book form, packed with a ton more information.
Thanks to all who sent out messages, posted about my book, and purchased it yesterday.
It’s unnerving to throw a book on that subject out there, as so many good ones already exist. (Trust me, I’ve read all of them.)
But each one taught me something new. Often many somethings. Because no one person knows everything about this business.
And while there are many books on publishing and even more on marketing, very few books feature both.
In short, I’ve decided not to worry. I created the best book I could, both filled with information and yet easy to follow.
And I did it to help other writers and authors avoid the pitfalls and mistakes.
So read, learn, and follow your dream!
And today’s tour stop is at Stina Lindenblatt’s blog with her review of my book.
Hopefully I shouldn’t have added THAT to my insecurity list today!

Your book is a great way for us to deal with our insecurities. It's a wealth of info. :D
Congratulations on your book! I'm all set for tomorrow, and I've got it schedule to post at 3a.m. - 6a.m. EST but I can't promise that I'll be up and commenting that early.
Tyrean, I wouldn't expect you to be up that early!
Congratulations on your book release. I read about it over at Arlee Bird's blog. Looks like a great combination of both sides of the "industry."
Oh Diane, I think I live on the moon - the dark side at that! I'm late for the party. Many congratulations on your new book and it's one I desperately need (I suck at promotion) - off to Amazon. Wishing you many sales!
Loving seeing your book on so many blogs, Diane. Go you!
Best of lucks with your book, Diane!
Nope. You don't get to feel insecure today. Today you make the rounds of all your friends who are posting about your great new book and just feel good.
It's so exciting to have a new book out. Congrats!!
Release the dreamer...and live life boldly! Good luck with your new book!
Congratulations again!
I believe always being willing to learn will make even the most experienced writer even better. You can never know enough. So keep pumping out those books. There's always something else we don't know but should.
I think your new book is perfect for writers - and there are many of them here in the blogosphere!
You have the corner on the blogosphere this week! Congratulations.
Congratulations. Good luck with your book.
Your advice is always amazing, Diane. I'm looking forward to reading the book. Once we stop learning, we stop growing.
Congratulations!

Congrats, Diane. You created the best book you could have and that's important.
I'm seeing you everywhere I go today! Congrats on the new release. Promoting is something we're all interested in. Will definitely get to this book :)
Take time to breathe :)
A great book at the perfect time.
Win/Win!
I worry about the competition at times too, but like you, I know all I can is write the best book I can.
If you did your best, then that's what matters.
Wonderful! Congrats and the best of luck! If I ever get the call your book will be invaluable!
