Marketing, writing when you don't feel like a writer, and book development
|
Hello Reader, Last week, I asked you to vote on a gift that would be sent via these emails. Thank you to those of you who voted! I have the results. First, though, I'd like to talk about what's going on at Siretona Creative. A new blog post is up. It's about writing a book when you don't feel like a writer. You'll find insight for the start of the writing journey. The Marketing Pathway program is inching closer to completion. We're adding the final touches to the lessons. Hopefully, it will be ready soon. Now, for the results... The poll winner by a wide margin is a book development walkthrough. That's a full walkthrough of the marketing process. I'm excited to bring it to you. There is only one thing I need... a book. I want to go through the full process, including the title and the description. I want to make sure it's relevant to you. So, let's pick a type of book. This poll will close on February 27th. I look forward to seeing what you pick. Have a great week! Molly Layton-Simpson Marketing Assistant |

Hi Reader, You've probably heard that the federal government is debating implementing a 25% tariff on American books. That tariff will put a lot of strain on Canadian booksellers and publishers. Could this be an opportunity for Canadian authors? A tariff will result in raising book prices and limiting imports. In most cases, books will get 25% more expensive, so a $20 book would now cost $25. Canadian authors and publishers printing in Canada might get more benefits under the tariffs. The...
