I market quite a lot through LinkedIn, where I post three times a week about my books, which includes writing a weekly newsletter. Sometimes, I post about my book on Facebook, too. I host webinars and appear on podcasts as well which relate to my book topic. It’s a constant process. I recommend that you look up Honoree Corder’s tremendous book, You Must Market Your Book. It has a lot of terrific ideas. Thanks for reaching out and for the positive feedback about my book. (less)

Madeleine K. Albright
“Good guys don’t always win, especially when they are divided and less determined than their adversaries. The desire for liberty may be ingrained in every human breast, but so is the potential for complacency, confusion, and cowardice. And losing has a price.”
Madeleine K. Albright, Fascism: A Warning

Daron Acemoğlu
“We have to understand why the politics of some societies lead to inclusive institutions that foster economic growth, while the politics of the vast majority of societies throughout history has led, and still leads today, to extractive institutions that hamper economic growth.”
Daron Acemoğlu, Why Nations Fail: The Origins of Power, Prosperity, and Poverty

Jon Meacham
“Yet for all that the United States has accomplished—and we have been a country that people take pains to come to, not to leave—we remain an imperfect union.”
Jon Meacham, The Soul of America: The Battle for Our Better Angels
