Profile Information

Something About Me and My Book:: I am the editor of Maroma Books, a new, one-of-a-kind children's book publishing company. In 2007 we released our first "A Halloween Story, by Alberto; A frightfully delightful tale, by a 5-year-old, for other little monsters, everywhere."

Our first book (about Halloween/Day of the Dead) will be coming out this late summer.

But for marketing ideas...we're at square zero.

Any help out there?
