If you're wondering what a first-time author might be doing to help his book make a splash when it's ready for publication, I can tell you it doesn't involve much writing. Well, that's not entirely true. I've been writing a lot of emails - to groups of people I think might, at this early stage, be most pre-disposed to being interested in the book. For example, I found an institute with "respected teachers of contemplative wisdom and applied spirituality" and sent an email to the core faculty. I sifted through listings of dozens and dozens and dozens of clairvoyant/psychic/mediums and sent an email to about 25 of them who seemed to be of high caliber and great integrity. And I am in the process of doing the same thing for bereavement counselors.
It's not exactly rocket science, but it is time consuming and I'm feeling a great sense of urgency. I'm also working on putting together a "book club" kind of discussion with some folks who have read the whole book, then streaming that online before the launch.
And I am open to any and all ideas that any and all of you may have.
