Book promotion!

One of the (many) things I fret about is that I'm not doing enough to promote my books. Some writers seem like they're born for publicity, while others are pretty shy about tooting their own horns. I'm a shy tooter, so promotional activities are a challenge. But the cool thing is that sometimes it's possible to get someone else to do my tooting for me.

I co-wrote a book with my aunt, the psychic advisor Louise Helene. It's called I SAW YOUR FUTURE AND HE'S NOT IT, and it's full of love and relationship advice taken from the consultations my aunt has had with her clients. The book is funny and entertaining and offers excellent advice. And I'm not just tooting here.

Well, Louise Helene has been invited to be a guest on a few upcoming radio shows where she'll be talking about the book and maybe taking calls from listeners who have love and relationship questions. Following is a list of the upcoming shows. I hope you can stop by and listen. You'll definitely enjoy yourself and you might pick up some ideas for improving your love life.

- Guest on local Canadian radio show Passion on CJAD-AM in Montreal. It's scheduled for April 18th from 9:30 - 10:00 p.m. Central/10:30-11:00 p.m. Eastern.
- Guest on online radio show The Psychic Partners on May 13th from 5:30-6:00 p.m. Central/6:30-7:00 p.m. Eastern.
- Guest on online radio show Mystical Cruise Ship on Friday June 21 from 7:00-8:00 p.m. Central/8:00-9:00 p.m. Eastern.

I Saw Your Future and He's Not It Release Day

What do the drummer, the crier, and the guy who fled into the night have in common? They're all men who are featured in stories from I Saw Your Future and He's Not It: A Psychic's Guide to True Love. This entertaining relationship book published by Llewellyn Worldwide is just in time to help get your love life (or your best friend's or your sister's or your cousin's, etc.) in order for Valentine's Day. http://www.llewellyn.com/product.php?ean=9780738734934

I co-wrote this book with psychic advisor Louise Helene, who has spent many years advising her clients on their love and relationship problems. The stories in the book are uplifting and run the gamut from touching to hilarious. You will also learn interesting facts like why people cheat on their partners and how much money people actually spend on their search for true love. You'll even find exercises designed to improve your own ability to listen to your intuition and understand what actions to take in your own life.

Starting today, I Saw Your Future is available everywhere. I hope it helps bring you happiness and love in 2013.

 

First Review - And It's Good!

That Google Alert I set up to tell me when anyone mentions my upcoming book I SAW YOUR FUTURE AND HE'S NOT IT: A PSYCHIC'S GUIDE TO TRUE LOVE has paid off. Today it led me to the book's first review. http://biggestlittlereviewblog.blogspot.com/2012/11/book-i-saw-your-future-and-hes-not-it.html
Now, I know I SAW YOUR FUTURE is a great book, and my coauthor (and aunt) Louise Helene knows it's a great book, but until you actually see a good review, there's always that nagging little doubt that maybe the rest of the world will wake up on the wrong side of the bed and won't be in a mood to like anything. So it was a huge relief when I read the review and saw that this reviewer understood what we were trying to do and enjoyed it. (Exhale huge sigh of relief here) I'm so glad that the reviewer recommends the book, and it was especially fun to read that she identified with some of the women whose stories of good love and and good love gone bad are presented. That's something we've heard from many of the women who've read the book. This is serious cause for celebration this weekend.
Cheers to good reviews!

New cover art for I Saw Your Future and He's Not It

My editor at Llewellyn Publishing just sent out the brand spanking new cover art for my upcoming relationship book I SAW YOUR FUTURE AND HE'S NOT IT: A PSYCHIC'S GUIDE TO TRUE LOVE. It's my first foray into adult nonfiction, and I co-wrote it with my aunt, the psychic advisor Louise Helene. It will be available for pre-sale later this summer, but I had to share this cool cover right away.
Stay tuned for more details!

I Saw Your Future

Terrific news: I have a contract with Llewellyn Publishing to release my first nonfiction book for adults! I Saw Your Future and He's Not It: A Psychic's Guide to True Love was co-written with my aunt, psychic advisor Louise Helene. For more than 30 years, she's consulted with clients around the world, particularly talking to women about love and relationship problems.

You might be thinking, "But, Kim, you write young adult fiction. What's with the nonfiction book for adults?" Well, the fact is that I'm a sucker for a good story, and this book is full of fascinating ones that my aunt has heard from her clients over the years. Some are hilarious, some heart-breaking, and some will just make you say "aaawww". This book has something for everyone, whether you're in a relationship or not, and whether you're into supernatural phenomena or not. It's entertaining, lively, and informative. You'll love it!

Our publisher is working on cover art for I Saw Your Future and He's Not It right now, and I'll post it here as soon as it's ready. The book will be available for pre-sale at Llewellyn Publishing's website and at booksellers starting in July or August. It will be released January 8, 2013, just in time for Valentine's Day.

My aunt and I really enjoyed the opportunity to work together on writing the book, and now we're looking forward to the fun of promoting it. I'm even sharpening my book-signing pen. Sadly, pens aren't supposed to be sharpened, so now I've got ink all over my fingers. OK, I'm going to sign off and wash my hands.

Happy publishing!

Kim
