My heartfelt thanks to all the wonderful writers and bloggers who helped me let the world know that TE2 was out! This includes all 20 bloggers who helped with my cover reveal, the 8 who shared my release news, and every single one of you who checked out each post and shared it on your own social media sites. I’m very, very grateful to each of you!
This was the first time I’ve ever done anything in the way of promotion for a new release, other than sharing the news on my own blog and FB pages, and it was a learning experience, for sure. One thing I learned is that smaller is not necessarily a bad thing, and I will be keeping that in mind when I’m ready to release Wake-Robin Ridge 4: The Light. I’ll also be planning that release at a time when I’m not booked quite so heavily for local engagements, so that I won’t be overwhelmed by the amount of work on my plate. It’s thanks to the generosity of each of you that I’ll have some experience to draw on when it’s Rabbit’s turn to be featured.
For now, I’d like to take a moment to say a special thanks to each person who invited me to guest post on their blogs for the release of TE2. I chose the first 8 people who volunteered, but I greatly appreciate the offers from everyone else, as well, and plan to check with you next time, in case you are still interested.
If you aren’t already following these blogs, I encourage you to do so, or at least stop by for a visit now and then. You’ll find something special about each one, so it will definitely be worth your while.

Thanks so much for helping me, Mae! And thanks also for the well wishes. I’m truly happy you enjoyed it! I confess, I had trouble stepping away from those three guys for a bit. But I’m starting to get into Rabbit’s head again, and that’s always a trip and a half, too! 😀 ❤

You did a great launch, Marcia. I’m so crappy at it and can learn from you! I agree that smaller is sometimes better. We’re a small community and it’s easy to overdo the promotion. I think yours was just right. Wish you great success. 🙂

Thanks, Diana. It was as much as I felt I could handle, though I’ll do longer excerpts/articles probably when I’m promoting a full length book. Keeping it smaller was definitely the key for me, I think. And I want to plan AHEAD better next time, so it’s not all happening at once. I think I’ve learned a few tricks, so hopefully next time will be better for me AND for those reading the posts. 🙂 And thanks for the well wishes, too. ❤
