I almost spelled my name Kaye, but decided to stay with what I was used to. I wanted to write under the name I use in "real life" -- Sandra Brown. Someone else is using that name very successfully. lol

Stop Spending Your Promo Dollars on Throw-Away Marketing!

This will be brief, as I've written about this topic before. I just want you to understand very clearly that if you are spending time, effort, and money on traditional book promotion (i.e., signings, mailers, print ads, brochures and fliers), you may well be tossing your hard-earned cash out the window.
