After recently venturing into the Indie writing market, I was on the lookout for an easy to use reference to help with marketing strategy. This book reads like a one-stop-shopping experience for anyone looking for marketing advice. Not only does the writer provide insights and examples, but he has listed dozens of useful links for a variety of different sites that can be of benefit. I think that is my favorite part. As a very busy writer and freelance editor I have precious little extra time to do the legwork. Thankfully the author has done all that for me, and it's not just a random list, these are sites he has used and recommends.It was a quick and easy read that is set up in such a way that the reader can go back and easily reference individual areas to focus on. I especially appreciated the insights provided as to the author's own experiences of what works and what not to waste time on.I had been viewing marketing as a necessary evil, but after reading this book I am actually excited to try the new suggestions as well as confident in my abilities after seeing that I was already implementing some of them.I recommend this guide to any writer that wants to take an honest approach to helping their book succeed in the vast and often ambiguous waters of publishing.
