How to Prepare for an Author Event

Starting up on your way to build a publishing campaign, you may find yourself daunted by the size of the task, and a bit lost. There is little information to be found, and too many places to find it. I know it from experience. Still, committed to promote my creation, I am reminded of the whimsical play Six Characters in Search of an Author (by Pirandello.) Only in the case of my novel, Apart From Love, it is six characters in search of an audience. It is a difficult quest. I am determined to help them.

So, for my fellow writers and poets, especially those of you gearing up for your first author interview, I found an excellent article, Checklist of Items to Take to Your Next Speaking Gig or Book Signing event.
