BookTour recently launched a 10-part series on Book Promotion called “Everything you Wanted to Know about Book Promotion but were Afraid to Ask” written by CEO Kevin Smokler. Kevin has been advising authors and publishers on marketing and promotion for nearly a decade and has written and lectured on the topic throughout North America.

I've not yet had a chance to read all of the articles, but they look helpful and I plan to get back over the the web site soon.
