5 weeks to book launch
More about my writing and publishing journey.....
📘As Rewriting My Happily Ever After - A Memoir of Divorce and Discovery gets closer to publication, there's more to do but I finally feel I am getting somewhere. Feeling hopeful 😀
🎯 Here's a list of 5 things that I have done this week with 5 weeks to launch.
1️⃣ The best thing this week was getting absolutely heartwarming reviews from readers who signed up for the ARC. Their kind DMs and messages really made my day. All this effort seems worthwhile.
2️⃣ Among the many things I had to learn on this publishing journey was to create graphics. I used Canva to create this simple book trailer - https://youtu.be/if-dE545QFE. Would love to hear your opinion.
3️⃣ I am now emailing, discussing and writing guest posts for blogs and publications which are featuring my book. I will share links to when these new posts appear.
4️⃣ As an independent author, I have always felt that there are synergies between indie bookstores and indie authors. If you have a fav local bookstore which you think should keep my book, do let me know.
5️⃣ It's time to begin planning details of the book launch. If you have any ideas, please let me know. All ideas welcome.
✍ For writers who think rejection happens only during publication, I have news for you - you can get rejected by publishers, bookstores and media outlets. But guess what, if your book is good, you get the best kind of support from people who matter - readers.
📚 I am having my share of rejections evern at this stage, I am buoyed by the support of people who have taken the trouble to read my book in it's entirety. More on that in a separate post.
I am getting super excited as I get closer to the goal 🤞
✍ My biweekly newsletter has exclusive freebies and offers leading up to the book launch. If you don't want to miss any of it, do sign up here - https://www.ranjanirao.com/newsletter....
Looking forward to your ongoing interest and support.
Have a great weekend.

Less than 3 weeks to launch
#rewritingmyhappilyeverafter 3 weeks to book launch!
I can hardly believe it!!
The weeks seems to be passing in a blur but each day brings new connections, new possibilites and new reviews @goodreads . Can't really complain😇
📘As Rewriting My Happily Ever After - A Memoir of Divorce and Discovery gets closer to publication, I must share this - it is stressful. I generally try to not use the 's' word but l can feel it now. Have been blogging about recharging and trying to avoid burnout.😩
If you have any fool-proof tips, please let me know.
🎯 Here's a list of 5 things that I have done this week with LESS THAN 3 weeks to launch.
1️⃣ The best thing about this week was waking up to messages from known and unknown people expressing support and willingness to help get the word about my book out. What more could an #indieauthor like me ask for?
2️⃣ More than 15 reviews @goodreads and growing. And the best part - the book seems to have resonated with a much larger demographic than the one I envisioned!
3️⃣ From my newsletter subscribers to social media followers, from people who know me personally to those who feel that I'm a kindred spirit by simply reading my book, I can't help but feel grateful for all the good vibes that are coming my way 🙏
4️⃣ As I see a community forming around my book, I have been thinking about everyone else who does the same through different means. Planning to talk to a few such community builders. Would you be interested in listening to my conversation with inspiring people who quietly go about doing their thing - making the world a better place, without shouting from the rooftops?
5️⃣ I have been approached by people to have author interaction sessions to speak about my book. A little scared but also happy to be asked. Will keep you posted.
📚 The book launch is beginning to feel really close now 🤞
Let me know if you have any questions.
Looking forward to your ongoing interest and support.
Have a great weekend.
