The Great November Book Release Re-Boot

[hrj]

 So here's the thing: I can't be the only author who had a book released in November (or December, or January...) who felt too gobsmacked by political events to feel comfortable going all out on book promotion. (Heck, it took me most of November to get out of panic attack mode.) So I'm giving myself permission to do a 6-month anniversary book release re-boot. And to feel a bit less self-conscious about it, I'm going to make a general offer. If you had a book released last November, hit me up with the basic info about it and I'll pick one or two book every day in May to cross-promote along with my own. If anyone else wants to joint the bandwagon, be my guest! Comment here, or e-mail me or tweet me or whatever works for you.

This sounds like an excellent idea!

Would a January release work? I did republish with a different cover in April, but haven't been able to get to promotion yet--in January was also gobsmacked by intense weather.

If the November re-boot seems like it's done something, the plan is to roll it over to December and January in the next months. I've had to talk myself into this with an arbitrary structure, so "6-month re-boot" gives me permission and structure. So watch this space and if the response is good enough to make it seem worthwhile, then I'll be doing January books in July.

Thanks! That would be good timing.
