Dear Friends,

The one thing I have learned about working with authors and publishers is that book marketing never stops. 

I don't care when the book was published, it's important to keep getting your name out there and growing your fan base, whether it's for sales or to interest Hollywood filmmakers, whatever the reason--keep it going!

Here's a complimentary 30-day book marketing guide!

A great way to get the word out is...to shout it out to the world!

 Join our 3rd annual Book Cover Awards! 

We had thousands of voters from all over the world (from...as far away as Vietnam, Kenya, Iceland, Sweden, Germany, France, and so many other countries!)

And...If you don't LOVE your book cover, why not? (P.S. I know a few amazing designers).

Here's what's happening at Bedside Reading:

Did you know the typical author sells only 12 books a month?

I know, it's rough out there. We all know someone who knows a "guy"--whether to fix something, to make a connection, or possibly to help you in some way.

So, I know a guy who can:

- Sell 1,000 copies of your eBook. It will be sold at $0.99 over the next 90 days (your eBook price will need to be reduced to this price for only three full days).

- We will increase your worldwide bestseller category rankings.

- You will receive 10-15 verified Amazon reviews of your book.

- You will receive an independent editorial review of your book on the "Book Revue" website.

In order to qualify for this offer, you must have ownership and access to your own Amazon KDP account, and you must be willing and able to invest in promoting your book.

When the pandemic hit a few years ago, the subscription box industry blew up and disrupted the majority of industries around the globe. 

And now hundreds of subscription box companies want to include books in their monthly or quarterly boxes. 

Some of them are looking at ebooks and audiobooks now, but most still want paperbacks and journals in the self-growth, wellness, spiritual, and "happiness" space.!

Do you want to sell your book in bulk? Apply to the Indie Book Box!

Don't have a journal to sell?

My Indie Book Box partner, Carrie Severson, is the founder of the hybrid-publishing house, The Unapologetic Voice House. She’s created a package for authors who want to publish journals.

Subscription boxes are always looking for well-written journals and workbooks. Carrie knows the formula for journals as she just created her own to be released this December! 

You’ll work alongside Carrie and her team to create your journal content, cover, and design. 

The Unapologetic Voice House will publish your journal and Indie Book Box will pitch it to subscription boxes.
