Welcome to Day 252...
Okay so it's time. Time to get my big girl writing, marketing and e-publishing pants back on and get things moving again.
To get it all done and to get NEVER LET ME GO released, I'm getting back on a hard core schedule. More focused writing. More focused marketing. And to kick things off, I wanted to revisit my Marketing Plan for this year...Over the next few weeks, I'll be blogging about my efforts and those results. Stay tuned.
