Welcome Marilyn. Tell us about the book and how you promote it.
My mystery, A MURDERER AMONG US, made its debut on June first, and I’ve never been busier! Years ago, when I wrote YAs and books for kids, I spoke in schools and libraries. Even did the occasional book store signing. But an author’s life these days is something else entirely.
Keeping an updated website is essential. So is blogging, commenting on fellow writers’ blogs, tweeting on Twitter, and “liking” on Facebook. I’ve learned to design a business card, I’ve struggled to create a bookmark, attend conferences and conventions, and do all I can to get my book in the public eye. This is especially important because A MURDERER AMONG US is an ebook and available in print as a POD.A bit about my novel: Lydia Krause has moved to Twin Lakes, an upscale retirement community on Long Island, to start a new life. Her neighbor introduces her to Marshall Weill, the community’s financial advisor, whom Lydia recognizes as the convicted embezzler who drove her sister to suicide. She exchanges heated words with Weill’s wife. The woman’s found dead the following morning, mowed down by Lydia’s Lexus. Now Suspect Number One, Lydia investigates. Amid threats and more deaths, Lydia forges new friendships, helps resolve her grown daughters’ problems, and finds romance.
