Since I write in the paranormal genre, October seems to be the perfect month to market. The truth is, you have to market every month, but October is great fun. So, I have book signing events set up for every weekend. Last weekend was a craft fair in Barstow. I guess they had their lowest turnout of foot traffic ever. But, I'll tell you. With airshows and chili cook offs and a lot of other events going on in the area, a craft fair still attracted a few. Saturday was better than Sunday.
Three different people bought Bouquet of Lies, which is not a paranormal novel. The next day, after taking a look at the book, a lady returned to tell me she really liked what she saw and bought The Secret of Lucianne Dove, Chapel Playhouse and The Accordo -- even though scary is not her thing.
Even without a lot of book sales, it's good to stay visable, hand out cards and stay active. Next weekend is The Desert Rocks show in Hesperia. I'm look forward to it.
