A publicity campaign shouldn't sound like multi-level marketing, "ask your mom's 10 best friends to tell 10 friends to buy my book." #pubtip

Another tough question = "what if I don't get an agent?" Answer =shelve it, self-publish it, try publisher who doesn't require agent #pubtip

Basic thing to understand = YES, it happens. YES, we talk about it. NO, it's not a career-ending-event. #pubtip

Such a tough topic but one I'm asked so frequently! "what if agent doesn't like my next book?" and yes = it happens. #pubtip
