How to Market Your Poetry Book

April 13, 2011 2 Comments

A question I get a lot from writers is how they can market a book of poems. Seems that a lot of writers pen poetry, and they wonder how to publish and then market their work. After all, if you don’t market, you can’t sell. And you do want people to buy it, right?

To that end, I wrote a guest post for the Quips and Tips for Successful Writers blog on “5 Ways to Market Your Book of Poems.” The Quips and Tips blogs are done by Laurie Pawlik-Kienlen, who we interviewed here a while back. Laurie is a successful blogger and we all learn a lot from her. So check out my post, then read the rest of her fabulous blog!

    Hi Cherie,

    Thanks for writing this article for Quips and Tips!

    I spoke at a web writing class last night, and one of the students asked me why I don’t market my ebooks. I said because I don’t LIKE to do it — I find it tedious and boring.

    So, I think the best way for writers to market their books is to find things they enjoy doing. I love writing, so writing guest posts is more fun for me than, say, using LinkdIn to promote my ebooks.

    Just something that occurred to me – nothing earth-shattering, though 🙂

    Blessings,
    Laurie

      You make a great point. There are so many ways to market a book that writers need to focus on what ways work for them. Not everything works for everybody! But the good part is that there are a lot of options.

      (Plus, I think writing a few really successful blogs like you do is one of the best ways to market your ebooks!)

The Space Between Dreaming is a moving novel written with warmth and heart and which contains valuable wisdom. I loved that the work tackles difficult topics about childlessness, childhood trauma, and betrayal by friends with sensitivity. It tenderly captures the social and emotional toll of being childless. I loved the main characters and found them to be realistic and engaging. The work masterfully explores the themes of friendships and relationships, drawing important lessons that can be applied in real life. The inclusion of art and the process of painting also enhance the story. Cherie Burbach's unforgettable novel will resonate with readers for its applicable themes and compelling characters. Fans of women's novels will love it.

Cherie Burbach's writing is surprisingly vivid, this being her debut attempt. She can take you inside the character's mind within a span of words, all the things they're struggling with put bare before you. The prose isn't flowery, but gentle enough to nudge you into relating your traumas too, and heal as the characters do.

Loved learning more about art, and the community surrounding the people in the book. Couldn't wait for the next chapter and following the women in this story. I am hoping the author has a second book in mind, to continue the journey of Jane and Grace. I would recommend this to book clubs, so they could meet and discuss what they read and what they think will happen next.

A beautifully written story about the lives of two very interesting women who come together and form a life long bond. I love how this book is written. I found myself placed in the story like I was an innocent bystander watching each moment unfold and learning more about art than I ever thought possible. As the book ended, I found myself wanting more. My hope is that there is a 2nd book in the works so I can continue watching the friendships unfold and the lives of the main characters continue to grow!
