Have questions about book publicity?
Author/illustrator Stephanie Ruble has been making art ever since she could hold a crayon, and making up stories since she learned to talk. She's currently working on new picture books, images for her portfolio, and drawing art for unusual holidays. Thanks for visiting!

How many questions?! Okay, I'll try to limit it. :)
ReplyDelete1. How important is an author website for publicity, and do you recommend a highly interactive site for the YA audience?
2. What is the best pre-launch publicity strategy?
3. Do you recommend a separate blog for your book (as opposed to a general blog under your own name)?
Okay...I'll leave it at that. Thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge, Sara. And Stephanie, thanks for hosting this interview!

How cool!
ReplyDeleteHow do you see sites like Facebook and My Space fitting in to a publicity campaign, if at all?
Thank you, Stephanie!
ReplyDeleteQuestion...so you've got a website, you're on MySpace and Facebook, you've got a blog (though it's not a me-me-me blog--it's more content-based), you're on AmazonConnect, blah blah blah. What else can or should you be doing while you're madly at work writing the next book (which needs to take priority over everything)?
