Professionalism, Flip Flops, a Warped Sense of Humor.

Written By Betty Almond

While feeding the drama queens this morning (yeah, my hens and don’t get me started), marketing my books weighed heavy in my thoughts. Yes, I’ve watch videos on marketing and other authors approaches to promoting books and themselves or their brand. I am by no means an expert and for that matter I really dislike the sound of my own voice and face appearing in pictures and videos but I understand that is part of it. Most material hammered home about being professional. I think the best approach is being authentic and relatable.

 I won’t show up to an event in a tube top and flip flops (I’ll keep the flops in my bag until after an event) but I will bring a real smile and laugher, a genuine interest in the person in front of me giving my full attention to them as they chose to share their time with me.

 Here is the disclaimer: I have been accused of having a slightly warped sense of humor

Betty Almond

B. R. Almond is the author of For the Love of D. H. Lawrence. She enjoys fashioning suspense designed around family. The intricate emotional attachments mixed with how far one will go, be it to right a wrong, stay alive, or even for love is her sweet spot. And yes, she throws in a little romance. And if she can plug in a motorcycle scene, well that is icing on the cake.

A writer, farmer, and lover of motorcycles, she is from the southern region of Arkansas living the three L’s (Live, love, and laugh). When away from the keyboard, she toils around in the garden, dodges wildlife free ranging in her yard, and always on the search for a place to dive fork deep into great Cajun food. Mostly, she can be found walking in the woods thinking on her next writing project.
