👤 Smartryk Foster 📖 . Edited: 📚 Studying, Writing Advice
As a follow-up to the previous article, I found an interesting article about where and how to market a book. https://www.tckpublishing.com/how-we-sold-50000-books-without-a-marketing-budget/ Some of the links in that article lead to interesting articles, such as how to work with a book review blogger.
