Calling all chatterboxes! {An Invitation to Join my Reader Dream Team!}

In March, my fifth novel, Change of Heart will hit bookshelves (virtual and otherwise) across the country, and I am in "prepare-for-the-launch" mode. 

 

This book, like all my books, is special to me. As I've gotten older, I've begun to infuse more of myself in my novels, which I suppose makes them feel a bit riskier to put out in to the world.  Paper Hearts was also a special one for me, and this next one, while written to standalone is set in the same town with some of the same characters. (Did I mention it's only $2.99 right now for a limited time?) 

 

 

Anyway, one of the things I'm super excited about is building a DREAM TEAM of readers who will help me spread the word about my new release. These are influencers who will do what they can to get the word out about my books. 

 

Let's face it, promoting yourself is hard and awkward and I don't know anyone who feels 100% confident doing it. I certainly don't, and I have a feeling it will always push me out of my comfort zone! So, yes, I am asking for a little help...but trust me, we're going to make this as fun as we can! :) 

 

So, how do you know if you're a good fit for the Courtney Walsh Dream Team? 

 

• You like to read
• You're willing to review Change of Heart on Goodreads, Amazon, christianbook.com, B&N.com and/or your own blog/website. 
• You're active on social media and don't mind sharing about the book on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram and Goodreads
• You have a blog or website where you wouldn't mind telling your readers about Change of Heart. (This could be a Q&A, guest post or a book review.) 
• You're enthusiastic about spreading the word. 
• You have a network of readers (i.e. a book club or other reading friends) you would love to share my books with.

So, what's in it for you? 

You didn't think I'd ask for your help without offering something in return, did you? :) 

Here are some super awesome PERKS for my Dream Teamers: 

• A free copy of Change of Heart upon its release. (You'll be one of the first to get it!) 
• A Super Secret Facebook Group where we'll kick around awesome ideas to get the word out, tell stories and just get to know each other a little bit. 
• Giveaways only open to Dream Teamers. 
• Special content for your eyes only

Sound like a good deal? 

If yes, I'd love to invite you to take a quick little survey (the link is below). I'll keep the entries open for a week or so and then we'll choose some Dream Teamers!

I just finished the entire Sweethaven series in 2 weeks and loved Paper Hearts as well. Can't wait for this one to come out. To put a little perspective on it, I had not read a book in over a year but once I picked yours up, well I couldn't put it down.

I entered because I absolutely loved Paper Hearts and could barely tear myself away from it for necessary chores. Thanks for offering us this opportunity. I influence quite a bit and would be happy to influence for yet another good author.

New author for me so I would be a new review of your books. Will tell family and friends and will get the library to buy at least one of your books. If it goes over well they will buy more. Small library here.
