infinity of poetic stars by Magdalena Ball.

This site offers one of
the best advertising rates
in the Net's writing world.
Ads for the year are priced about what most
sites charge for a single month.
This site focuses on writers,
writing, reading, and retailing (on their
corresponding pages); and accepts only ads for
books and products that target those specific
audiences. By doing that, visitors are assured
that even the ads will be interesting or provide
excellent resources. Contact Carolyn
Howard-Johnson by
e-mail
for details. Ads with accompanying podcasts may be
accommodated.
Please note
that links on the resource pages are not paid advertising.
All ads on this site are clearly marked as such with the
notation, "Sponsoring Site" or "Sponsoring Ad."

my writing partner's new poetry book. |
Ad Rates:
Keeping It Simple and Frugal
It's only $35 for a
display ad like the one for Quark Soup above.
Advertisers
may suggest pages they feel are most likely
to reach the
audience of their choice.
Please note:
Display ads are always comped with identical ads on one or
more
pages
of this Web site, at my discretion, but with your input.

Tip
Expert marketers tell us that a person must be
exposed to a product (and, that includes writing
services and books!) seven times before acting
on the suggestion. They also tell us that visual
ads work better than other kinds. Is
your book and/or service for writers appearing
where writers and readers are likely to see it?
Find at least one tip on writing, promotion
or
tech on every page of this Web site. |
