Review

There are many books out there that give you insight on becoming an author and selling your book. Few are written from the perspective of someone that actually can relate to the process and can give insight from the trials and tribulations of the experiences lost and gained. Get Your Book Seen and Sold packs some great resourceful information and experiences in a small package that will give you a great foundation to begin your journey.

Written by two women through their own experiences and acquired knowledge, they share some fantastic information for those who want to write a book or have one but just don’t know what to do next. The book shares information that includes advice and examples on types of publishing, marketing, developing media and social contacts, publicity and so much more.

Overall, I think this is a really good book that lays down the foundation to help you begin and succeed on your book journey. For those out there who want to get your book seen and sold, this is one that you should consider adding to your reading list.
