Here are some blogs, in no particular order, about marketing your book:
- Book Marketing – interesting posts about once a week
- Book Marketing Bestsellers – John 1001-Ways-To-Market-Your-Book Kremer’s blog
- If:book – about the future of books, sometimes includes marketing
- O’Reilly FYI – publisher’s blog with some real insight into the business
- Publisher’s Weekly – industry trade magazine with an excellent blog – a must for book marketers
- TheBookSeller – UK based publishing – a wonderful collection of blogs about publishing

True that.
Thanks for these sites – I knew of Kremer’s but not the others. So much to read and do – not only do you have to writer your book, now you have to market it too.
