    That's great about seasons, I think my book is for the fall. Because the plot begins in September and it is quite dark on the whole.

    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
