Publicize Your Book — Review #1
Lately I have been reading the book “Publicize Your Book: An insiders Guide To Getting Your Book The Attention It Deserves” by Jacqueline Deval.
This book would appeal to anyone who is either submitting manuscripts to publishers or else planning on doing so.

It applies somewhat more to non-fiction authors, but it has numerous examples related to fiction, so don’t let that prevent you from reading it.
Right now I am about half-way through it, and so this review #1 only includes chapters 1 through 8.
