Promotion, marketing, whatever you want to call it, advertising, is very important for any product, even books. Movies have 'trailers' which are shown on TV commercials, or at the theaters, and on websites on computers, and many authors have made 'trailers' for their books, too.
I think I will look into this. I can probably make a better 'trailer' for my books than someone else who never even read them, so I will make that a goal for the new year. But where will I show these trailers? Well, certainly on this blog, and I suppose posting them on YouTube will be another option. I don't know anyone else who might post them on their blogs, so maybe it will be a waste of time, because who will know about them besides the people who read this blog? I would think anyone who's read this blog already knows about my books. The purpose of trailers is to get the word out to people who DON'T know about them.
But that's what I'll do. If nothing else, it will be fun like any of the things I do. Stay tuned.
