Book Review

Here is the first book review.  It was done by a fellow author Jim Hughes:

Withstanding the Winds, a devotional book by author Charmain Griffiths, is a book written from the heart. Charmain shares from her life experiences what she has learned and is learning in her faith walk. If you are looking for an honest look at life and how one’s faith affects it, you will benefit from reading, Withstanding the Winds. Charmain uses a conversational style in her writing. She shares what the Spirit reveals to her heart. While not everyone is going to agree with everything that is said, the reader will find many treasures here. Sometimes the deepest truths are discovered through the hard knocks of life.

Pre-release and Marketing

Wonderful, Wonderful..this is just how I feel.  I heard from my marketing rep yesterday by way of email.  He sent me a lot of valuable information and a lot of forms I needed to complete and return to him.  He also sent me information about  ordering books.  wonderful!!!.  I don't how much is a good number to order but I will figure something out.

I am still not finalized about when and where I am going to have my launch party.  It's not that I am indecisive but in my little town my options of venues are limited. I think I am going to wait until my book arrives and then move from there. I have several business places in mind for pre-sales signings and I am still working with my marketing rep how to set them up.  wonderful.!!

Today, I received the link for pre-ordering of my book on the tate publishing website.  Just to see it made me feel one step closer to the finish line.  I can hardly wait to hold the books in hand.  Here is the link:

I posted the link on my facebook page and invited my friends to preorder from Tate or me (preferably me, since I stand to gain a higher return then).  I also offered a discount for anyone willing to purchase more than one copy and free shipping to any location.  wonderful!!!

Well here comes the hard part.  Marketing I am told is a different kind of beast because of the fierce competition but I am confident that He who started a good work in me will complete it.  Of course I have to do my part and work but when I have done my best I am then leaving it in God's hand.
