I'm in a similar position and fast approaching the time when I must forgo sleep and sex - for the sake of marketing a first novel. Did you have a plan of action? It feels like I'm organisng the invasion of a small Middle Eastern state: the logistics are mind-boggling. I know the 'Ten Easy Steps' by heart - read them all. A couple of tips from someone whose knows what works, are priceless. Enjoy the after glow ...SydneyJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04006931344229821317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2037419790609319671.post-13703600545716078162013-02-26T23:13:39.189-05:002013-02-26T23:13:39.189-05:00So excited for you!!!
