Author Publicity Pack by Shelley Hitz and Heather Hart is an excellent resource for self- and indie-published authors to help find their way in the maze of online publicity resources. Though I’ve been at the online book publicity game for about six months now and have taken online and face-to-face courses and read incessantly on the topic, I still learned from Hitz and Hart’s book.

Rather than a how-to, Author Publicity Pack is more of a collection of sources for authors to investigate in their quest to market their books online. The writing is easy to understand and detailed and the websites listed amount to a goldmine of ideas when taken collectively.

Though it is in need of a minor clean-up by the authors (quite a few of the sites listed are no longer active), Author Publicity Pack is a valuable resource for authors, whether just starting out, or mucking through the mire that is online marketing for some time now.

Note: I was gifted a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
