I'm now looking for influencers. If you aren't an author, you might be wondering what that is. Influencers will pass out promotional items such as bookmarks, flyers, postcards, and business cards to church friends, local libraries and bookstores. If you have a blog or website, you could post an announcement about my book, or a link to my website or blog, review my book, or interview me. If you belong to a readers book club, you could suggest my book.
The idea is to generate awareness about my book, Highland Blessings. I would be forever grateful, plus I'll send you a copy of my book as soon as it is available. You don't have to do all of these things, but I would appreciate influencers to do at least 2-3 of these suggestions. I posted this on my Facebook Fan page yesterday so I apologize if this is a repeat for you.
If you are interested, please send me an email at jt4novels@yahoo.com and type "Influencer" in the subject line. I'll then request your mailing address so I can send you a package of materials.
For those of you who are authors, I'd be interested in hearing other ideas of how you promoted your debut novel, or how other authors you know might have promoted their book.

If you can help me Thank you
Hiya Jennifer, I was just checking out your blog and came across this post. I'd be happy to feature you on both my blogs. I have a small yet loyal following and I (along with my followers) are always happy to help promote a fellow author.
What would you like me to put up? Any specific pictures or information? I'll post a link to your blog for sure, what else would you like?
You can contact me at

Kathleen, Thank you!
Molly, Janice and Dawn,
Thank you so much for the offer to help me. If I don't already have your mailing address, email it to jt4novels@yahoo.com and type "Influencer" in the subject line. That way I'll be able to send you a packet with promotional items, and a copy of Highland Blessings when it releases. I'll also send you list of ideas and suggestions.
After I get past my macro edit deadline, you will be hearing from me.
Jennifer, I would love to put something on my blog about your book. I will e-mail you.
