Preordering
is one of the best things you can do to help an author launch a new book.
Pre-order sales are key to showing publishers, editors, sales and
marketing teams, and even the author how excited you are for their upcoming
release. It helps put new releases on bookstores’ radars and can trigger higher
initial print runs from the publisher. In addition, it means a stronger
marketing push for the book and stronger sales when the book finally hits
shelves!
To help
give SWEET
MADNESS the extra push it needs to succeed, we are hosting two
pre-order giveaways: one for readers and one for writers!
Pre-order Giveaway for
Readers:
We are running a special pre-order incentive to thank readers who preorder SWEET MADNESS or buy it before September 15th. All you have to do is pre-order/ purchase the hardback of SWEET MADNESS from
any online or local retailer. E-mail a copy of the receipt to leaverandcurrie@gmail.com and you’ll receive a handcrafted bookmark and an
exclusive photo of the Borden House taken by Frank C. Grace at Trig Photography.
As a special bonus and to support my favorite local indie
bookstore, I am offering signed/personalized copies of SWEET MADNESS from Titcomb’s Bookshop. After you add SWEET MADNESS to
your online cart, just enter “signed copy” and your name/ personalized message in
the comments field on Titcomb’s
online ordering form.
If you
purchase a hardback or e-book of SWEET MADNESS by September 22nd
(through release week) from any online or local retailer and e-mail a copy of
the receipt to trishamleaver@gmail.com you will automatically receive a free query or first-page
critique. Your choice!
Want a
little more incentive? In addition to your query or first-page critique, you
will be entered into a raffle to win a FULL MANUSCRIPT CRITIQUE from
me. For free. Free! (Max: 80,000 words)
And a
little something more to show my love for my local Indie Bookstore Titcomb’s Bookshop. Pre-order SWEET MADNESS from my local
Indie, Titcomb’s
Bookshop, and that first-page critique automatically turns into a
first-chapter critique (MAX: 8 pages) All you have to do is pre-order SWEET
MADNESS, but hurry! To qualify and be entered into the raffle to win
the full manuscript critique, your receipt must be dated no later than September
22nd!
