Tour Stop One - Filling a Need & Finding a Niche

Today my tour kicks off at Mystery Writing is Murder where I discuss filling a need and finding one’s niche.

I’ve actually had the pleasure of meeting author Elizabeth Spann Craig in person. We live at opposite ends of the state, but we finally got to meet last year at a book festival in between. Elizabeth is so successful and professional, and despite interacting with her online for several years, I had no idea what to expect. And you know what? Elizabeth is just FUN! It’s probably a good thing we live four hours apart as I could see us the two of us getting into trouble.

And not only is tomorrow the release day for How to Publish and Promote Your Book Now - Elizabeth’s next book in her Southern Quilting Mystery series comes out, Knot What it Seems. Congrats, Elizabeth! Hope we both have a good day tomorrow.

Remember to come back here tomorrow for your chance to win an autographed copy of my new book and some cool swag.
