There are more marketing strategies in my book, How to Market a Book, which is a few years old now, but the strategies and mindset are still valid, so I’d say 90% of it is still applicable, even if the tools have changed.

Thank you Joanna - after years of hurling myself bodily at the gates of UK trad publishing, my first book will come out via the Book Guild in November. I'm a total novice when it comes to the self publishing world so the first thing I did was buy one of your books! I found you via Rachael Herron and of course Sasha Black. So nice to hear an English voice when so much out there is American too.

Thanks :) All the best with the launch!
