Marketing

To have a plan is helpful but to have a backup plan is essential. That is a free life lesson from this widow writer. I had no backup plan nine years ago when my husband was killed. Silly me. I spent several graceless years floundering through the aftermath. Eventually I made new plans, and patted myself on the back for so wisely crafting these plans. The universe promptly spat them back out at me in a cosmic chuckle. I could almost hear the deities twittering, "It's so cute when people think the universe can be managed just because they make a plan!"  Sigh. Grumble. Argh.
It is now finally, abundtantly clear to me that no amout of planning guarantees any outcome. But that doesn't mean I have to stop trying.
In the longer-than-planned-for revision period of my manuscript I am casting my lines out in the sea of book marketing. Renewed attention to my neglected first book is overdue. I now invite readers to offer comments on Front Toward Enemy  If you have not read it, visit http://www.BarbAllenbooks.com  to get your copy. Ebook version is available through Amazon. Read it.
