Author Phillip Done released his holiday-themed book, <em>The Ornament Box</em>, in mid-October, understanding that the biggest book buying season is the fall. He chose to pursue a self-publishing path so that he could better control the time line and launch. Done recommends planning book launch and promotional events at least six months ahead of the release date, and advises authors to think outside of the box when considering places to sell your book and hold book signings. The key to getting positive responses from a prospective retailer or venue, he says, is to have your elevator pitch perfected, including any previously published work, positive reviews, and endorsements.</p> </div> <div class="asl-wikipage-media"> <p><a href="https://www.authorlearningcenter.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-01-24/Strategically-Timing-and-Planning-Book-Launch-Events.mp4">www.authorlearningcenter.com/.../Strategically-Timing-and-Planning-Book-Launch-Events.mp4</a></p> </div><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: fiction, Nonfiction, Subscriber, video</div>
