But you need that spread, to reach new readers.<br />I'm hiring a publicist for my next book, me. That stuff is hard work.

Too many blog tours rely on re-tread postings of the same information on each of the various blogger sites and this will lead to fatigue for the readers (who likely visit more of the blogs than an author might realize) and could be interpreted as lazy and uninvolved (something most authors are not.)Kristopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03363799437065223093noreply@blogger.com
