THANK YOU!!!

You are Amazing

We are so grateful to our amazing contributors, and are excited about the launch of this fabulous new book – Launch Pad – The Countdown to Writing Your Book. We have added a bonus download for purchasers and recipients of the book that will include a composite of the top ten lists and a host of resources to be an even more valuable resource for our authors.

We have information below on various promotions and items of interest for all contributors. If you have any questions about anything, please don’t hesitate to contact publisher Stephanie Larkin at Stephanie@RedPenguinBooks.com (516) 448-4993 any time, as well as our lead authors on this volume:

Bookish Road Trip

 
A Bookish Road Trip Book Video Celebration of LAUNCH PAD: The Countdown to Writing Your Book!
 
In recognition of the launch of our book, Bookish Road Trip is helping us celebrate with a congratulatory post, a review, and a “Live”  at 3pm Eastern. In addition, they will host a Video Six-Hour Marathon featuring interested authors.  Interested contributors should create a 2-3 minute video (SHOT HORIZONTALLY) for posting on Facebook, and, if also interested, a 30 second video (SHOT VERTICALLY) for posting on IG.   Videos should be uploaded here no later than Sunday the 26th:
 
 
Grace Sammon will schedule the videos on FB, have a link to your countdown sheet, and let you know when your post will air so that, if you like, you can interact and respond to comments.
 
Scripts should be simple – your name, perhaps the name(s) of your other work, what chapter you wrote, a tip or two, a soft sell to the book – we don’t want to be pushing it, just something like “I so hope you enjoy the wisdom and tips from all the tips from the contributors.” As always, it’s good to have a question in your video that will prompt viewers to respond in the comments.
