Articles That Support Your Book
Since you're an author, writing articles should be second nature for
you. The more articles you get published the higher your stock as an author
becomes. It goes without saying, your articles should relate to your book.
What you might want to do is plan out 20 articles by outlining what
order you want to direct your reading audience. Remember to add a bit of
intrigue to your articles to ensure that your audience will follow through
and go to your website and buy your book.
Google search authors who have a book that is somewhat related to your
book and ask them to post your articles on their website. Offer to post
their articles on your site.
One of the things that I've gotten into the habit of is to carry a small
notepad with me everywhere I go. When I have a few minutes I'll make notes
about thought that might make good additions to articles I want to write.

Book Reviews
About two months prior to releasing your book, you'll want to start
submitting your book to ezines, websites, other authors, as well as posting
your book on Amazon and Barnes and Noble on line. Get anyone who's read
your book to leave their review. This will boost your credibility.
You'll even find some online stores that specialize in book reviews.
They typically take about three months to post an interview. You can even
pay for reviews. There are several websites that have also created resources
to have you book reviewed by ezine editors.
Another often overlooked resource for book review is using Blog authors.
They are always looking for content and when you send them a copy of your
book, they will often provide a review on their blog site.
