Author Interview Questions for Julie Joyce, Author of Author Marketing Kit

1. Where do you get your ideas?
Most of the time I write about the things that I need to know about. There is something that I need to know. I research it. I learn about it. I write about it to share with others who need the same information.

2. What advice would you give to aspiring writers?
Just write. Don't let anyone discourage you from transferring your thoughts, ideas and imaginations into a written form so that they can be shared with others. You no longer need to hope that some stodgy publishing house will appreciate your vision. The most amazing benefit the internet has given to indie authors is a direct and unencumbered link to interested readers.

3. What would you like your readers to know about this book or you in general? I am passionate about helping indie authors to exploit all of the free and very affordable ways that they can promote their books. That's what Book Tour Radio is all about. I am an Indie Author myself, so I understand the passion, the journey and the frustrations. This book and the others that are "next steps" are all designed to shorten the learning curve for new authors.

4. Is there a message in your book that you want readers to grasp? I think it is most important for authors to realize that they are responsible for promoting their own book. While this seems tedious or overwhelming to many new authors, the process can be extremely fun and entertaining. Even authors on a shoestring budget can access hundreds of free opportunities to talk about and promote their book.

5. What advice would you give writers on the publishing process? The publishing process is easier now than it has ever been. Cost is no longer a factor. You can have a book on Amazon for free in a day. What you don't know about formatting you can learn on YouTube. What you aren't willing to learn you can outsource for a small fee. However, what all indie authors must always remember is that you need to care enough about your book to make sure that you not only have it properly proofread and edited but that you also provide it with a decent cover that represents the contents inside...because people really do judge a book by its cover.

Note: This is a FREE book for authors.
