Robin is the best-selling and award winning novelist of seventy books. Seventy! As you can imagine, she doesn’t hurt for publishers wanting to partner with her. She started in the general market and wrote for publishers such as Leisure Books, HarperPaperbacks, Avon Books, and Silhouette.
In 1997, she felt a call to write stories infused with her deep faith in God and has since written for Thomas Nelson, Zondervan, Revell, Steeple Hill, Tyndale House, Multnomah, and WaterBrook. This past September, Robin received the lifetime achievement award from the American Christian Fiction Writers association.
Robin, so great to have you here!
Show Notes:
What is a book scavenger hunt?
Is there an ideal number of authors to have on the hunt?
What kind of hard numbers can you tell us about?
Now the hunt that just ran in October, you coordinated the whole thing. If someone is going to head up a project like this should they run, or dive in with both feet?
Does it matter if the authors are all in different genres or does that actually help?
Can you estimate how much time the participating authors have to commit to the hunt?
Tell us about your latest release, Robin.
Love the the Podcasts you two. I had the privileged of meeting Thomas Umstattd at the ACFW conference when he was sitting and working with Erin Taylor Young. I was very impressed with the way he talked tech in layman’s terms. Most things marketing are like an anvil, hard and heavy. You guys make me feel like there is hope for the newbie.
Question: I’m not published yet, but I want to write a blog post here and there on books that I love that someone else wrote. Not book reviews, just like if you were talking book recommendations with a friend. I want to know if it would be smart to use My Book Table on my blog showcasing other author’s work and then add my own when the day comes that I’m published.
Thanks again. Keep the podcasts coming!
