I'm wary of sites I'm unfamiliar with (and that one seems to be outside of the U.S).<br /><br />Sorry to be so wishy-washy!Stacy McKitrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07898731847653710759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232628723576241448.post-26591281387710953142011-01-19T16:58:53.516-08:002011-01-19T16:58:53.516-08:00Talli - Before I go further, let me just say that ...Talli - Before I go further, let me just say that I love the new cover of yours. I saw it yesterday along with that video. I want to copy the photo and replace the old cover that I have to go with that review I did.<br />I am pushing the paperback right now because of two reasons: most of the folks in my neck of the woods are slow to embrace the e-book, and more importantly, so the media will take me more seriously and review me.<br />Eventually, e-books will dominate, but I'll probably double my sales pretty quickly once this word gets out.<br /><br />-JimmyJames Garcia Jrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00559119178720751963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232628723576241448.post-91944246644574415882011-01-19T16:52:46.170-08:002011-01-19T16:52:46.170-08:00Maria - Yes, we have three Costco's in our are...Maria - Yes, we have three Costco's in our area (30 minute drives). I hadn't considered that. I am working on reviews at the same time that I am networking stores. The great thing about my novel is it is set in my town and the entire Central Valley of California will feel represented since I mention other cities, Police Departments, etc.<br />I had considered some of the retailers, but had not considered Costco as of yet. Thanks for the tip.<br /><br />-JimmyJames Garcia Jrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00559119178720751963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232628723576241448.post-75426884367942013292011-01-19T16:47:56.215-08:002011-01-19T16:47:56.215-08:00Marissa - Great minds must think alike!

Before that, I had just come from sending another copy and press kit to a magazine in the large city in my area. I don't want to say too much more about that until I hear something back, but it is most definitely promising.<br />Now, when do you want me to fly over and sign your copy? ;)<br />-JimmyJames Garcia Jrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00559119178720751963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232628723576241448.post-74240852948563708632011-01-19T16:43:46.710-08:002011-01-19T16:43:46.710-08:00Katrina - Thanks for the idea.

In any event, the tour will definitely be something that I will have to consider. I cannot afford to say no to very much. What I hope to do this year, as opposed to last year, is to prioritize, becoming more efficient and effective with the little time I do have for getting the word out there. I may find out that the tour is perfect. We'll see.<br />Thanks for the cover comment, too. <br />-JimmyJames Garcia Jrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00559119178720751963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232628723576241448.post-9359537199842947212011-01-19T10:54:05.681-08:002011-01-19T10:54:05.681-08:00Big questions!

If you're doing it as a back-up to the ebook, a bit of awareness with blog tours etc might be just the thing.Talli Rolandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04780882465745107715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232628723576241448.post-62030902933342254402011-01-19T04:05:53.042-08:002011-01-19T04:05:53.042-08:00Do you have a Costco in your area?

It was a nonfiction book specifically about the history of the local area, which appealed to the manager. <br /><br />You might be able to do the same.

I'm sure they'd apprecaite a copy, and maybe they'd let you do a 'talk' to some aspiring authors and do a signing (and hopefully sell a few copies at the same time!).<br />Also schools and university's might be interested in something similar...Marissafarrarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02409272164117892923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232628723576241448.post-84791189606259196992011-01-19T00:08:56.126-08:002011-01-19T00:08:56.126-08:00Ps the cover looks hawt !!!!!!! ;)Ps the cover looks hawt !!!!!!! ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09452323442311051556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232628723576241448.post-11488138408348165312011-01-19T00:07:22.833-08:002011-01-19T00:07:22.833-08:00Blog tours seem Popular !! it promotes the blogger...Blog tours seem Popular !! it promotes the blogger and the book and brings alot of extra interest !!!! mabye promote the book within your country and e books international ?
