MISS CHEYENNE MITCHELL - AUTHOR OF SUPERNATURAL THRILLERS "SYROIA" AND "THE COVERING" HAS GREAT ADVICE FOR WOULD-BE AUTHORS

As an Author/Novelist I have learned quite a few things along the way in this business.  This is not my "first rodeo" as Dr. Phil likes to point out on his wonderful, and informative television show.  It takes years sometimes to sit down, and pen a novel as some of you well know.  Then there is the editing, and more editing, trying to get reviews (which are extremely important) of our novels. In other words getting them out there in the world for people to read, and enjoy.  Once your novel is published, depending on the Publisher, make sure it is seen (with the cover image) at online retailers. Another tip is to take copies of your novel to book stores around town. Make an appointment first with the Managers of those stores once you get their names, and ask them to carry at least four or five copies of your novel, of course you will give them something fair on each sale. When you do take a "sell sheet" which depicts your profile, a synopsis of the novel, and the cover picture of the book. Don't forget to connect with other Authors in your genre. Many of them can be found on Twitter's Listorious List. www.listorious.com  Go into the "SEARCH" engine and type in the Authors that write what you write, ex: Authors of romance novels. An entire listing will come up for you. Connect with those Authors on Twitter.  Email would be better, but that can come later on.  Use the Timeline on Twitter to subscribe to some of these Authors.  Usually, this is a very good way to get yourself connected to them and them to you. Don't forget to advertise your work as much as you can in the small space that you have to write in on Twitter, usually 140 characters, which is not a lot.  Remember, there is a lot of junk on Twitter, but celebrities use it, too.   Reach out to people on LinkedIn, and Facebook. If you don't have these accounts open one for yourself.  There are many ways to get your book out there.  Most book signings help, but unless you are already famous in the market don't expect hundreds of people to show up for your book signing.  Don't be afraid to ask someone who loves your genre to review your book and post their reviews where they will definitely be seen by a lot of people.  Reviews are extremely important for us as Authors.  A good place for reviews is Bookreviewerlist.com  It costs but they have a data base of around 3,000 reviewers that deal with book stores, newspapers, magazines and a lot more.    Your book review will be seen, and fair.

  As an Author/Novelist of Supernatural Thrillers I am trying to build my fan base with readers who love that genre.  A lover of these kinds of novels will be a great book reviewer.  A lover of romance novels or adventure novels will not do you justice.   Please see the excerpts from my new Supernatural Thrillers out now entitled "SYROIA" and "THE COVERING" on my blog.  www.goodreads.com has many book reviewers, and my first review of "SYROIA" is there. Also, if you are on LinkedIn you can ask for "recommendations" from those you are linked in with. "Recommendations" are only asking someone to say a few words about your novel. If they are not familiar with you there is always  pdf. format of your novel that you can send to them free of charge IF THEY ARE INTERESTED.    I hope this information is helpful for you, and I truly hope you will become a fan of mine as "SYROIA" ( as I heard from one Reviewer of it) will give you chills!!!  And, The Covering, is just filled with great suspense, and mystery that you won't forget.  Lots of love to my would-be fans, and I hope my information helps you as it has helped me.  As an Author/Novelist I know how hard it can be to get out there, but with the social media available to all of us these days it's a lot easier than it used to be. And, don't forget seminars or webinars as they are very informative as well as important.  Lots of luck!   Please see my website - http://misscheyennemitchell.webs.com
