Thanks much, Teddy Ree. I've made a note of it. (My books are available in some parts of Australia. There is an interest in Japan) The mailing is being made by the publisher.

Thanks, Tim. That's very generous. I'm somewhat lucky in that I have a publicist through my publisher. My foray into hiring my own some years back proved quickly that it was expensive and I could do the same thing myself (i.e. prepare a flyer to mail out). So, essentially, I'm leaving the heavy hitters (major newspapers) to the publicist and concentrate on web sites and contacts I've made myself. I have started going through old notes and my scrap books of past reviews. The DorothyL folks do…

A wider net may be useful, readers in Australia are more than happy to review as we don't seem to get the quantity or the variety that US or even UK readers get. I review and discuss on Goodreads, my own personal reading blog http://teddyree-theeclecticreader.blogspot.com & also on Royal Reviews. I find that when I'm participating in reading challenges reviews get noticed & recommendations get accepted and our sites are getting far more hits and followers.<br />

Hi, I. J.<br />
<br />
I spent a bunch of money last year with a publicist who was going to get me reviewed all over the web but at the end of the campaign, something like 60% of the sites that had been listed as "pending" were still pending and there was no follow-up at all. I'm doing it myself for this year's book and have been busy for months compiling names of sites and contacts with individual reviewers. (Even if you don't want to post on DorothyL you can still use it as a resource for review info.) I…

It's been too long ago to hash out again. The general tone on DorothyL frequently erupts in flaming attacks. This turns the writers posting on the list into fawning toadies to other posters. It's, to say the least, uncomfortable. Add to that the fact that I don't write cozies and don't think much of them and you see that we were hardly a match made in heaven.

I don't post much on Dorothy L. Basically a lurker. What was their problem with your sort of book? I'm curious. I haven't read your books although I feel maybe I should have. Just checked out your page on booksnbytes.com. I participate in RAM and many on that newsgroup will not participate in Dorothy L. I guess some have had a bad experience. It is difficult to have a bad experience when you don't post much I guess.

Thanks, Laura. Excellent advice and not clutching at straws at all. I was born in Germany. I went ahead and dropped them a line. You're an angel.
