Happy Friday all!

Today I read some great articles about PR.  The first is about getting the media’s attention and the next is about blog tours and blog hops.

Very relevant.

What strikes me most about the media article is the great advice that I often see not taken.  For example, one should say yes to a reporter if they wish to interview you that day.  

It’s short notice but do it no matter what.

Also, treat journalists with respect.  They are doing you a favor and that favor can be taken away very quickly.

If authors want to succeed, it takes work.  Again, success is hard work and there is no way around it.
