Take out some of the obvious language that is extra... like everything prior to the title of the book as an example and "on a final note, I'll mention" which is all extra. Just say what you want to say without rolling out the red carpet for the words.) Other places to look for that so maybe have Sally read it through and suggest other trims.<br /><br />What book series (successful one!) is this book like? Not exactly like, but would have similar readership appeal? State those books and state clearly what age group this is for: YA, pre-teen (the Harry Potter/Percy Jackson age group) or even younger.<br /><br />Just state: I tweet @ and I blog at ... and list those items. It's a foregone conclusion that you do. If you have over 1000 followers on Twitter, mention it. If not, don't mention it. If you won any blog/writing awards, mention it. <br /><br />Oh and say that you wrote the book for your daughters instead of kids. Since you have daughters and no sons. It's more specific to marketing. However, if you think the book will appeal to boys also (ala Frozen!!) then give a sentence as to why.<br /><br />OK, that's it.<br /><br />EH<br /> EHowardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09553434784454659408noreply@blogger.com
