Hi Julia and Jared I am just starting the process of having my manuscript looked at by Balboa press and am at a loss as to where to start my marketing - I live in New Zealand - I have approached a couple of book stores but really need to know how to start a marketing plan as I want to be a success. I want this book to lead to me being able to write and sell more - plus I would love to speak publicly about my experiences, etc. Are you able to assist, many thanks Ruth Anne Caukwell

Yer it is good. I don't really get a lot of time seeing I have so many things going at once. I have lost count at the moment, so I hope I can make the most of this site I think it was the pitching a screen role that got me first
