I didn't mean to ditto the timing per se; I'm not sure what Robert means. I was just congratulating Geoff on publishing the book. Among the recommended promotional techniques are putting up a Web site for the book, starting a blog, arranging print and broadcast interviews, and leaving posts on relevant Web forums. I think he also has taken advantage of some of Amazon's features for author promotion. I was tickled to see what Geoff had done because I had just given an author client of mine who has a book coming out soon a pep talk recommending all these approaches. (Advice on promotion isn't part of the editorial services I offer, but of course I want his book to do well, and I've been reading about promotion just for my general information.) > > You might want to also post a notice on the Google Group > > alt.meditation.transcendental and on the Yahoo!

The point is to get the title out in front of the public. I can hardly wait to see what you'll find to argue about in my response, Sal.
