Although this was an Interview done a few years ago, there are “golden nugget take aways “that will benefit any author in any genre.
Liz Lawless and Russ Johns welcome prolific author and lead counsel for the biggest publishing case in the world – Mike Farris.
Host Liz Lawless shares today’s Launching Secrets = 3 activities you should consider before publishing and especially launching your book:
Have a Promotion Plan
Create an Online Street Team
Set up a least one Social Media account and create some graphics with your book cover with a link to buy (NOTE: This is not available on Amazon until you actually publish).
Host Russ Johns interviews #1 Amazon Best-Selling Author Mike Farris about his publishing journey which started many years ago and which he continued on the side while practicing as an Attorney. The author of 16 books and some screenplays, his most recent book might b closest to his heart. This book “Forty Hours” tells the story of his father’s small plane crash and how he survived forty hours in the Big Thicket of East Texas in January (winter). Mike wrote the story from his Dad’s point of view and shares some interesting conversations throughout the forty hours. Although a departure from Mike’s legal thrillers and other non-fiction books, this story captures the reader all the way to the end.
