Meet Our Founders
"I learned book marketing in the trenches when I self-published Four Methods of Journal Writing, which became an Amazon #1 Bestseller. Then I marketed The Heroine's Journey, 18,000 miles across the United States in an RV--featuring a 22-City Book Tour (including book readings of my bestselling and award winning memoir at Malaprops Bookstore, Parnassus Books and Porter Square Books)."
