The quote from “Field of Dreams” is ‘If you built it, HE will come’ which has been misheard for decades as they will come. So here I am I built something, hoping HE or THEY will come. Readers, that is! Unfortunately, I was informed that my local bookshop could not stock the book because the market isn’t good there. YA/Fantasy, Science Fiction won’t sell there. This means I need to find my readers. I have put out the ad, and I have boosted my range to England, the US and the whole of Australia. With 70% being in England so far. I am hoping people will buy the book.
The advert will last a week. My posters have been out in town for two weeks. I even have had the same poster in the Coffee Shop for two months. It seems that right now I am only reaching the same people and word of mouth isn’t working, or the word isn’t spreading yet.
My article in the local magazine didn’t get the exact phrasing I wanted, I got a small mention at the bottom of another article. I hope it doesn’t get overlooked.
If you are here reading this because of the ad, a magazine or another means. Comment below how you found out and thanks for reading. Spread the word.
