To be truthful, I have skimmed many books on "how to publish and market new books" and most of them were a waste of time, repeating the same old information. So, I didn't expect much from this book, but was very surprised! This book is wonderful!Briggs provided a 90 day plan to help new authors build their social platform. As a part of this strategy, he introduced and described the most helpful, current social media channels, including Twitter, Google+, Facebook, etc. His explanation of each social media outlet was peppered with examples, practical suggestions, and helpful tools. This book didn't just provide great information, but offered beneficial exercises along with a daily schedule to follow as one launches a new book.Briggs' writing was clear, concise, and easy to follow. I liked how he highlighted the more salient points in text boxes. His chapters included many useful links.This book is a new author's "must-have" and "go-to" book! I can't recommend this book highly enough. In fact, I am going to go purchase two more copies to give as gifts!
