It&#39;s the authors that the readers want to meet and get to know, not the publishers. Wee recommends that authors have an impactful website and strong social media presence to engage with readers. He also advises authors to be shameless with their self-promotion, as this can go a long way in creating awareness for your work. Publishers can help authors with certain aspects of book promotion, Wee says, such as connections with the media and bookstores, but at the end of the day the author needs to take ownership of these efforts.</p> </div> <div class="asl-wikipage-media"> <p><a href="https://www.authorlearningcenter.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-01-53/The-Necessity-of-Self_2D00_Promotion-and-How-Publishers-Can-Help-Authors.mp4">www.authorlearningcenter.com/.../The-Necessity-of-Self_2D00_Promotion-and-How-Publishers-Can-Help-Authors.mp4</a></p> </div><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: fiction, Nonfiction, Subscriber, video</div>
