Alright, let’s be real. My journey to owning an electric car was not a love-at-first-sight story. I even wrote books about the subject.

I mean, my trusty Escape hybrid was already getting a ridiculous 50 mpg, and the idea of dropping a small fortune on an EV, only to be constantly worried about where my next charge would come from, felt like a non-starter. But then, life—and a sweet lease deal—came

W.M.J. Kreucher answered Blessing Oladeji's question: I find your books really captivating, but I’ve noticed that their online performance, especially on Amazon, seems to be a bit lower than expected. I’m curious, what marketing strategies have you been using so far to promote them ? I use social media of various types, a blog, and a dedicated author website.

“I've been going a long time now
along the way I've learned some things.

You have to make the good times yourself
take the little times and make them into big times
and save the times that are all right
for the ones that aren't so good.”
