June is a powerful month here - Mark your calendars.
Awesome ARC Giveaways - June 1 - June 4: As you all know I'm lucky enough to be going to BEA. That's right - that means ARCS galore. I'm going to sharing the ARC Love and giving away some ARCS of hot books not out yet.
New agent, Brianne Ogden from Martin Literary Management is having a query pitch contest on my blog. Details and date to be announced.
Also agent, Mary Kole with Andrea Brown Literary Agency will be stopping by for an interview and a giving away a query critique!
There are a couple other surprise events so stay tuned!
Here are my favs for the week:
Questions to ask your publicist - Many authors are choosing to hire a book publicist to help connect with readers and potential audience members. Before you hire a publicist, it is important to ask a few basic questions.
Effective vs Efficient - If you want an easier way to memorize the difference, remember this sentence: “Being effective is about doing the right things, while being efficient is about doing the things in the right manner.”
Internet Marketing is driving me crazy - Tips on how to not go crazy when marketing online.
Kathleen Duey takes center stage - Kathleen, author of Skin Hunger, leaves most of us gasping at her drive and full frontal embrace of social media.
Fiction writer's topics for blogging - Fiction writers often struggle with what to write about at their blogs. Help is on the way. Here are 19 topics to get you started.
How to retweet effectively - You may have no real concept of retweeting (commonly seen as RT) or what that can mean for your success and fun on Twitter.
Have you seen any great marketing articles. If so leave the link here and Ill add it.
Have a great weekend.
Any fun plans?

Don't take much clothes to BEA. You'll need room in that suitcase for all the ARCs!!! Will you try to grab some MG ones too?
Enjoy!!!
