I am focusing on less costly marketing options to ensure readers, like you, can find my ebooks and paperbacks. I would really appreciate you taking a few minutes to see how all the information could benefit you. If you are a member of any organization that shares resources, supplemental materials, etc. please consider adding these series. Please help me spread the word. I’m sure the interesting data presented will justify the cost.
After years of spending time to share information with readers, the author decided to retire except for her A TIMELINE FOR ROBERT FULLER FANS 2 that will be published in the future. She plans to do more book marketing and enjoy the present.
