Rating: 5 out of 5

Like every e-book that holds information and suggestion for newbie authors, this one also held the same interest to me. I agree strongly with BK when she writes about authors struggling about marketing and promotions and its one sad truth that we all suffer exposure because of this. I, myself, have been in the self-publishing business for a year now and I know what pain marketing can become sometimes. But it is not the end of the world and with this book, Be Great! Be Bold! Be Beautiful YOU! I never felt more in control and directed towards the right path.From the writing stage, where BK has mentioned techniques to help us write, overcome our writer's block and make writing an interesting pastime for us, she takes us along making our online presence, publishing our book with self-publishing or traditional publishing, discussing the pros and cons of both of them. Moreover, she explains the need for a good and catching book cover, synopsis, importance of reviews, marketing like book tours, author interviews, and guest blogs or simply connecting with your readers. Whatever way you choose to promote yourself, give your 100% to that because it means a lot. I learnt a lot while reading this book; it explained where I was wrong and how I could make my book marketing strategies better. I would suggest this book to newbie authors and to those who are struggling to make themselves known in this huge bookish world as well.It's a worthy catch and a good choice to learn about writing and publishing in only an hour.I would give it 5 out of 5 stars.
