“Out-of-the-box PR campaigns” for authors to get their books to legions of readers from “one of the best publicists in the business” (James Rollins, #1 New York Times bestselling author). From the rise of ebooks to the impact of online retail sales to the wide acceptance of self-publishing as a natural path, countless authors are writing books and then wondering what to do with them. Self-published authors need to know how to bring their book to market themselves and reach audiences without a publisher’s marketing or publicity department behind them. Even published authors want to supplement the work of in-house publicity managers and develop a direct relationship with everyone from the media to potential fans. As the head of her own independent PR firm, Kaye Publicity, Dana Kaye has been a driving force behind numerous bestselling authors across all genres, from thriller authors like Gregg Hurwitz and Jamie Freveletti to children’s authors like Liz Climo and Claudia Gray, and now she brings her insights to you. Kaye walks writers through all of their options, taking the anxiety out of the pitching process and teaching them how to be their own best promoters. Sharp, intuitive, and user-friendly, Dana Kaye’s guide is a must-have for all authors with bestselling aspirations. “There’s a reason I didn’t hire an outside publicist through my first ten books. It’s because I hadn’t yet met Dana. Smart, no-nonsense, creative, and to the point, she’s the best in the business.”—Gregg Hurwitz, New York Times bestselling author of Orphan X
