Episode 75: Foreword Publicity with Lori Orlinsky and Aly Bourque

Halloween is coming! And so are some other fun writing stuff. National Novel Writing Month starts on November 1st. That’s also the start date of the beta cohort form my new group book coaching program. Give yourself the Christmas gift of meeting your goals and join Make Your Book Happen for as little as $0! Signups close on Friday afternoon, so don’t delay.

Today I have a great interview with Aly Bourque and Lori Orlinsky of Foreword Publicity. We chat about what publicity for authors is, how to find the right help if you’re thinking of hiring someone, and how to extend the “shelf life” of a book. A book is new to a reader whenever they pick it up!

You might remember Lori from her previous appearance on the show back in March, when she talked about reaching out to libraries. I think I say in today’s episode that she came on the show last year, but I was mistaken. 2020 has been such a year that I didn’t realize it had only been a few months!

  1. Hi Connie:
    I may have missed the deadline because I live in New Orleans and our power was just restored after the 5th hurricane of the season this week.
    Please notify me when your 7-week group coaching program is available for me to sign up.
    I am interested in joining your group and appreciate the invitation.
    I sincerely appreciate your kindness!

    1. Hi, Gabbi! I am sorry to hear about you losing power. But I am glad it’s back! I’ll be sure to announce when the coaching program reopens, probably mid-to-late January.
