While I’m recovering from some oral surgery I had last Friday, I’m inclined to just rest and update my blog another time. But I’ll be on vacation soon, so I’d rather post something than nothing. With that, I recommend blog readers check out my fellow literary author, Jay Lemming. Jay and I follow each other on Twitter and have both read – and boosted – each other’s work. I thoroughly enjoyed his novel Billy Maddox Takes His Shot, and I highly recommend it.
Last month, Jay published his 2017 Literary Fiction Survey for Readers, which you can find here. Now Jay is at it again, with a big cross-promotional project among a group of authors…the biggest cross-promotion I’ve ever seen.
It’s called, quite simply, the April 2017 Literary Fiction Giveaway. And it’s an embarrassment of riches: Jay has joined forces with ten other authors to promote each other’s work, thereby exposing their own audiences to each other’s audiences. I would have joined the fun myself, but I’m still working on the completion of my own giveaway, the short story collection Rides from Strangers. Anyhow, check these folks’ fiction out: you can get a free preview of the books by just joining the mailing list of each author whose work you’d like to sample. Genius!
And now I’m going back to the pillows and pudding. Have a great week, everybody.
