‘Cat Inspires Author to Experiment with Video

Mitali Perkins saw yesterday’s post on the simple art of book trailering and decided she’d make a go of it herself, creating a video for her YA novel First Daughter: Extreme American Makeover. It’s the latest in Perkins’s online self-promotional efforts, following a blog about candidate’s kids written in the voice of her novel’s young protagonist.

I’m starting to think we should have some sort of poll on this trailering thing. Let me cogitate on this for a while and see what we can put together for the near future.

Create a social media strategy, launch your campaign, and track the results in our Social Media Marketing Boot Camp starting February 16. The online event and workshop will feature speakers including The Onion‘s Baratunde Thurston (left), Facebook’s Morin Oluwole, and bitly’s Tim Devane. Register now.
