I know it's an arduous path, either way. <br /><br />You don't know me but my dear friend of many years, Marlene Dalziel turned me on to your blog. I invite you to read mine, which is mostly a travel journal: adventureswithsher@blogspot.com <br /><br />I can suggest to you a book I am finding very helpful (at the same time, frustrating) "Get Known before the Book Deal" by Christina Katz, all about building your "platform", something I'm finding somewhat challenging. <br /><br />I think I agree with your readers who suggest maybe having at least one blurb on the front cover, especially if it's from a known author. <br />Cover ideas are also challenging. I understand. Good luck. Would love to meet you but I am in Mexico now and writing from here. My novel actually takes place in Latin America. <br />How about yours? <br /><br />Hasta luego, Sher Davidson Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
