Hi everyone–

I belong to a great group called Marketing for Romance Writers. It has tons of smart members who share ideas and help each other in the wild, woolly world of book marketing. This group is run by my friend, Kayelle Allen, who is clearly any author’s secret weapon. Now, the amazing Kayelle has cooked up a marvelous Marketing Summer Camp that you can attend FOR FREE. All you have to do is sign up for MFRW and follow along. The Summer Camp is this coming weekend and promises to be packed with incredible information on everything from how to set up a Twitter account to the secrets of secondary marketing. Here is what Kayelle says about the Summer Camp:

Subject:
Marketing Summer Camp July 14-15, 2012
Marketing Summer Camp is a free, two-day online conference designed to help authors learn the basics of marketing and promotion, and to fine tune skills already obtained. It will include guest speakers, pitch opportunities, prizes, top giveaways, and plenty of learning and fun. It will be held on the Yahoo group, Marketing for Romance Writers. Membership is open to published as well as non-published authors, editors, publishers, literary agents, author promotion services, cover artists, and virtual assistants. MFRW members are automatically signed up for Camp. If you want to take a particular course, read the messages posted with that title of the class. If you want to skip that class, don’t read them. It’s going to be that easy. Handouts and goody bags will be up for grabs once the conference begins. Giveaways include advertising packages, blog tours, and more. Discounts on services will also be available for all attendees.
PITCH APPOINTMENTS
There will be pitch appointments with multiple publishers for camp attendees. These will take place after camp so you don’t have to miss classes.

Seriously you guys, you just don’t get this kind of opportunity for free very often. In a week and a half i’m attending the RWA Conference for which i paid BIG bucks. So if you’ve ever even thought of writing a book — or if you want to learn some basic marketing for any other type of business — join MFRW and set aside some time to attend or review these fabu workshops.  Hope to see you there!
