I've already received many wonderful messages from readers who couldn't wait to dive into my new book, THE BURYING PLACE. Thanks for all your kind words. As you finish reading the book, I hope you'll post your online reviews at places like Amazon, BN, book blogs, and reader web sites.
I also hope you'll encourage your friends to discover my books! One of the comments I hear regularly from new fans is: "Why haven't I heard about you before?" Even after five books, many readers still haven't found me yet. Writing is one of the last great "word of mouth" businesses, and authors build a fan base one at a time, person by person. So all of you who already know my books are my greatest allies in spreading the word.
Several Facebook fans have begun posting links to my web site (www.bfreemanbooks.com) or to the fabulous Star Tribune review of THE BURYING PLACE. That's a BIG help, and I hope that you will do me the favor of mentioning my books on Facebook and other sites you visit, sending messages to friends, talking to local booksellers and librarians, etc. That's how new people get to know my books, and it's especially important right now, when my latest book has its widest availability in stores and online.
If you want more ideas, I've got a special page on my web site with lots of other suggestions for ways to spread the word.
THANKS for reading and for all of your support!
