Words of wisdom!

Plus, I think you have to give people something useful, like review of a book you like or share interesting information, just like you’ve done here. I reveal the history behind my historical mystery fiction on my blog. It’s a way to share all that research that I’ve done (!) and might interest someone in my book. It’s the “soft sell” rather than “all about me.” Thanks for the post.
