My last reading was a great success, even though I was a little nervous to speak to an audience about surviving a brain tumor diagnosis ten years ago.
I am happy to do another reading of Cancer on my Mind at Ink Spell Books, on April 9th, from 2-4 pm, 500 Purissima Street, Half Moon Bay, CA 94109.
I have sent out 20 emails to local chain and independent bookstores from Santa Cruz to Marin, looking for a bookstore who will let me do a book reading and signing, despite not being signed to a major book publisher. It has been tough to get form rejection letters from 90% of them, but I am not going to let this get me down, I will forge forward and promote the word that "anyone can survive a brain tumor or cancer if they apply positive thinking and a never give up attitude daily during the battle."
Promoting your self-published book is like having a personal part-time job, but I am loving ever calm and nervous moment.
I have been posting like a madman on Facebook and Twitter, trying to drum up support for my book, Cancer on my Mind.
I want to thank Jesse Sternburg and JSternburg Productions (http://www.facebook.com/pages/JSternburg-Productions/135053876557218) for his help to create three awesome videos to promote Cancer on my Mind. Great job, Jesse! Thank you for supporting me to get my book out in print. Thank you for taking endless hours to write, record, produce, shoot and edit the Cancer on my Mind music video and book trailer.
If you need any videos shot and edited by a professional, email JSternburg Productions at http://www.facebook.com/pages/JSternburg-Productions/135053876557218.
