Book Promotion Tips: Literary Calendar

January 24, 2023 Leave a Comment

File this post Book Promotion Tips Literary Calendars under things to remember. Handy for planning your book promotion calendar and author/illustrator events.

When would an author or illustrator use a Literary Calendar?

  • if/when your book falls within a category (i.e. you have a picture book with science themes — then the science dates, picture book dates, and children’s literacy dates would all fit your book promotion planning)
  • support other authors/illustrators/publishing houses
  • build your brand as a book expert
