Have you thought about your book launch strategies? In this episode, I talk with author and podcast host Christopher Tallon about why this is important to do if you are writing a book.
We also talk about a few strategies that Chris has done. We talk about blogging and podcasting and how what we have learned over the last few years. These tips will help you as an author to start your own show, or help you pitch yourself to podcasts as a way of getting publicity for your book.
Christopher Tallon is a veteran, former middle school teacher, the author of the sci-fi/horror novel Switchers, host of Creative Ops (a podcast for creative people), and makes being bald look awesome.

Author Action Point
Start as soon as you can. If you have an idea that you will be selling a book, start as soon as you can. Start reaching out to people and trying to get on podcasts. Get on social media but don’t just constantly be posting about your book. Think of the future, plan for the future and don’t wait for a week before the release
