Episode 109 The Publicist's Role with a Novel
Have you noticed how some novels get a lot of media attention and others don't? In most cases, it's likely to be because a publicist is working with the author, and one who knows the right people and how to get the right message out there. In this episode, I talk to my own publicist, Karen Stretch, who is supporting me through UCLan Publishing. Karen is a freelance publicist and if you are interested in working with her, here is her website - https://www.karenstretchpr.co.uk/
In the podcast, Karen mentions Publishers Publicity Circle, and you can find their website here - https://publisherspublicitycircle.co.uk/
