I am a first time author writing with a pen name for anonymity and safety. The pen name is Emily Just; she has her own email. The book is about domestic abuse: LETTERS FROM EMILY- A Christian Woman's Journey from Abuse to Freedom with HOPE--JOY--BLESSING. The WestBow marketing with website, social media package and press release have yielded virtually no sales to date: 1 hardcover and one ebook. I have done additional email networking and marketing which is still in progress. Facebook and other social media require a mailing address and telephone numberr. Even if Emily could have these accounts, she has no "friends" for networking. What can I do? LaVonne Kemple #756661
LaVonne, I too am writing under a pen name for my book about domestic violence. A suggestion I have is to use your information (phone number) and Emily's email address to create the social media profiles. Then join Christian writing groups on Facebook, most of them have days to share your social media address and everyone follows one another. This will help grow your following but most importantly for your following to grow depends on the content content you share, use keywords, and relevant hashtags. Use the name Emily Just on social (you do not have to show your face to be relevant.) Hope this helps!
