December 13, 2008……….I spoke at the monthly meeting of the California Writer's Club, along with two other members. As I started my talk I pulled out a large time clock and set it for my fifteen minutes. That got a laugh. Then the seconds whizzed by as I talked about marketing and publicity in my publishing journey and the fact that marketing starts the day you decide to write the book because you have defined an audience. We all jumped when the timer went off with its extra loud r.r.r.i.i.i.n.n.n.g.g.g.. I feel so privileged to be in the company of talented authors.
