LOIS'S HINT #2 FOR GETTING REVIEWS:
“Think creatively. When a newspaper or radio station doesn’t have a regular feature that focuses on books, try to find a way around that.”
Page 80 of Carolyn Howard-Johnson's How to Get Great Book Reviews Frugally
I recently sent a human interest story to our largest LI newspaper about a WWII hero who loved his pipe! This story has nothing at all to do with my Tales2Inspire books, but I was sure to end with a few words about Tales2Inspire and me as an author. Now I’m holding my breath to see if they will publish it.
Lois W. Stern, Creator of Tales2Inspire®
Lois W. Stern's Tales2Inspire was a kernel of an idea she started in 2012 which has grown to proportions even she didn’t dare to envision. Her innate curiosity about potentially fascinating human interest stories was the spark that ignited this idea. But it was the confused state of traditional publishing that propelled her forward. Tales2Inspire delivers exactly what it promises as both an ‘Authors Helping Authors’ project and a contest. Winners get their stories published in print, as e-books, and some even in video formats that their names, headshot photos, and mini-autobiographies. Then she spreads the word about the winners and their stories on her blogs, social media and monthly newsletter. FREE to enter, this is a great competition for talented newbies and seasoned authors alike. Learn more about her an her projects here:
