We CAN! promote our books: Moderators

Who are we?

We are a group of writers who belong to CAN, the Christian Authors Network, who are passionate about writing. As published authors, we long to share our victories and struggles with regards to marketing and promotion. No one really ever told us about this part of the business of writing, so, like you, we are learners. Won't you learn alongside us?

Difference between Publicity and Marketing?

There's a great post over at Novel Journey about what a publicist does, how it differs from marketing, and what would be a waste of publicity dollars. You can read it here.

Welcome to the CAN Marketing Blog

We, the members of the CAN (Christian Authors Network) Marketing blog entitled We Can! promote our books, formally welcome you to this little corner of cyberspace. If you take a gander toward your left, you'll see the days we'll be blogging--all twelve of us! We want this blog to be the place authors go if they want to promote, publicize and market their books.

We'll approach this from many different angles, with many different voices. Some of us have many books out, while others are promoting their first. We've all had some level of success in our marketing endeavors, and, as I speak solely for myself, some blunders too. We'll share interviews, insights, and creative ideas with you with humor, candor and a dose of humility.

It's our hope that you'll tell your friends about this new blog, that you'll dare to make a comment or two, and that you'll walk away from this blog with many practical and insightful ideas.

Enjoy!
