Carolyn Howard-Johnson shares writers’ resources on her award-winning blog Sharing with Writers

Have you done a search on the Walmart site for your

book?

Authors are telling me that their Createspace-

printed books have been appearing there with no

extra effort on their part. In the past—even before

Createspace—I found my books magically appearing

on sites as varied as Harvard’s bookstore and

Costco.com.

If you find your book on one of these sites, check to

see if your book’s buy page needs any special

attention from you—like the addition of reader

reviews and utilizing other benefits

offered to writers and the publishing industry as

suggested in the newest book in my

#HowToDoItFrugally Series of books for writers,

How to Get Great Book Reviews Frugally and

Ethically.
