The publisher set up a virtual book tour for June. Did not know such a thing existed until several days ago, but the mechanism gets the book in front of more readers, all through the magic of the Internets. Anything that means chilling in an air conditioned office, I like. Although I avoid shorts–and the sun in general–I do enjoy a room filled with Freon chilled air.
The tour runs two months. Interviews and reviews will appear at all kinds of sites and places. In preparation for this fiesta of Last Track promotion, I have a dozen documents to review and many answers to prepare. Oh and another book to write, but that’s a different discussion.
More details will follow once I get out from under this “paper work.”
Very neat. I’ve heard of these, but no author I really pay attention to has done one. (So far as I know at least.) How exciting!
The really big acts get to do physical tours still, provided they are at a big enough house that is currently solvent. I think these virtual tours will prove a good compromise, in that at least I have to work through a lot of the same questions and processes that being in front of audience compels, but I can do it from a keyboard and grab a nap afterward.
