How to Get Your Book Reviewed Imagine your book at
top of Best Sellers List of New York Times. Most authors do. The question is, "How do I get it there and sell millions of copies?" When planing your book, there is one critical thing that most authors forget - marketing. In case of book reviewers this means pre-marketing. Most reviewers require a copy of your book at least three months before publication. This is because most book reviewers need time to read it and review it plus publish all reviews on books that they have reviewed for those who came before you. Also many publications come out on a weekly or monthly basis instead of daily. This means that book reviewers have a huge backlog. So best way to get a book reviewers to review your book, is to get them a quality copy of your manuscript or a galley, as soon as possible. What if my book your already been published? Is it too late to get a book reviewer to review your book? In some cases yes and in some no. There is an easy way to get your book reviewed without calling it a review. Send out a press release. Create a press release about your book and submit it to your local newspapers, magazines and radio stations. Make it interesting. Don't just say Mary Joe Piper has just published her newest book Babes on Parade. Think about your story and what it can teach people. Does it have a theme about love or friendship or settling disputes? Use issue in your press release. Teach people how to solve their problems and then have person interviewing you mention your credits, as a published author. At that point your book will be mentioned, you will have done them a service, and you will have saved thousands of dollars on marketing and query letters to editors. Here are just a few sites that you can go to to submit your pre - publication book: Book Reviewers:Terrie Bittner Bellaonline.com: Children's Books childrenbooks@bellaonline.com http://www.bellaonline.com/entertainment/children.html Categories: Children, Children’s Religion, Young Adult - Children Query first.
