Does anyone in this group review books or just advertise their own?

Marti Melville Comment by Marti Melville on January 11, 2011 at 4:46pm

I review books, Michael.  I also provide pre-publication ms review.  This is done privately through my website ("contact me") or through Authorsden.com.  There are a list of services through Authorsden that are available.  You may want to take a look at that site to get an idea of what is available to you.

 

Best to you!

Marti

Beth Kallman Werner Comment by Beth Kallman Werner on January 12, 2011 at 7:47pm

I also recommend AuthorsDen as a source for services available to authors. As former Director for Kirkus Reviews and Kirkus Discoveries, I can claim from experience that reviews are an essential piece of any book marketing program.

 

You never want to be the only one saying your book is great. Be sure to obtain objective, unbiased book reviews, either from literary peers or professional services such as Kirkus, Foreword/Clarion, Blue Ink, etc.

 

Another thing to keep in mind about book reviews is that even if/when not glowing from beginning to end, most reviews can still be used to the author's advantage. Many authors cast reviews aside when they include anything less than flattering. This is a mistake. I have helped countless authors pull useful pieces from reviews they would otherwise have stuck in a drawer.

 

While there are never guarantees of a positive review (and shouldn't be, at least not from a credible source), that is precisely why they count.

 

If you'd like help with selecting book review services or how to use reviews you've already obtained, feel free to reach me. I can work with you on book reviews, how/where to get them and how to make them work for you.

 

Author Connections, LLC provides professional editing, advertising material and custom, integrated marketing plans for authors. Our goal is effective book promotion for talents and titles that deserve to shine.

 

For more info, feel free to reach me at beth@authorconnections.com or check it out at www.authorconnections.com.

 

Wishing you all the best for a healthy and happy new year.

 

Write on.

Is there anyone other than myself, who would be willling to exchange book reviews?  I'll read your book and post a review, if you are willing to do the same.  Brutal honesty is what I'm looking for.

Rafael M. Ayala Comment by Rafael M. Ayala on January 18, 2011 at 3:11am
Thanks Rebecca.  I wrote a western, and yes all three volumes are published.  Check them out on Google Books, http://rafaelmayala.webs.com or http://readmybookplease.weebly.com.  Thanks for the heads up!  I'll check it out the website.  I'm in the Florin area, where are you?

Google has a scam going on. If you sign up for their $75 to $100 free advertisement, they will not even try to help you. They will give you the run-around with switching phone numbers and extensions that lead you to someone that nows nothing about what's going on. Stay away from this scam.
