Have you ever considered writing an op-ed article about your work, and then in your byline, reference one or more of your books. It can give you exposure. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5273270228005303883.post-13807545569182293512016-06-13T08:01:06.871-07:002016-06-13T08:01:06.871-07:00I just meant hosting one another on our blogs--so ...I just meant hosting one another on our blogs--so it's both marketing as well as blog material :)Meradeth Houstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06741790047121063893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5273270228005303883.post-15391251303473068012016-06-13T06:27:30.631-07:002016-06-13T06:27:30.631-07:00Boy do I hear you about promoting!
