by Maralys Wills

Overview

You've published your book. Now what?

New authors are faced with this question, and stacks of books in basements everywhere. But what to do once they have given one to every member of their families?

So many new authors believe their books will "sell themselves." Whether they self-published or have a publisher, getting book buzz, and finding an audience for their book, is largely the author's job. What's the secret? Maralys Wills shares how she, and other authors do just that in Buy a Trumpet and Blow Your Own Horn!

With so many authors self-publishing, this book is needed like never before. Turn those books into bucks ... instead of dust collectors.

About the Author

Maralys Wills is the author of 14 books, scattered like birdseed over six different genres. But she can never say which work she likes best. "It's always the last one I wrote."

However, she freely admits that a highlight of her writing career was the critique she received from author Sidney Sheldon. In one of his last letters, he wrote of her writing book, "Damn the Rejections, Full Speed Ahead:" "Maralys Wills, genre-hopper exraordinaire, will make you laugh and cry and laugh again in this gripping, how-to handbook for writers everywhere. She is clearly a force to be reckoned with."

Among Maralys' three memoirs is the recently re-published "Higher Than Eagles," which gathered five movie options (including from Disney),a review in the Los Angeles Times, (reprinted in 56 newspapers), and a visit from the newsmagazine 20/20. "Eagles" is once more in the hands of a Hollywood producer.
