From Author Donna Boddy comes Angel With A Mission, a captivating and inspiring story of true love, tragedy, loss, and the restoration, forgiveness and redemption that is found in Christ. This intriguing novel offers immense hope in the midst of overcoming great adversity.

Let Author, Donna Boddy, transport you back in time, as she invites you to take a journey through life with young Kata. A woman who had everything this world had to offer. A promising career and fame, a loving husband and family, wealth, a high place in society, stability and security, but as life would have it sometimes these things can change rather abruptly. And although life is ever changing, what do you do about it when you come to the end of yourself and life as you once knew it has forever changed?

A triumphant story of restoration, this novel follows Kata during some of history’s most memorable moments to include war torn Germany, during the Great War. Kata weathers the dismal storms of many of these challenges and life’s tragedies, as we all have, but comes to find a greater hope. This is an overwhelming, emotional and delightful novel that will have you fully engaged. You will not be able to put this book down with this powerful novel that will have you sometimes crying and grabbing for a tissue, as you follow Kata through her life’s winding path.

Author Donna Boddy’s writing style flows so well and eloquently, it’s like you’re right there with Kata in each scene. This is a wonderful novel of a life interrupted by betrayal, war, sickness, death and tragedy, yet offers true biblical inspiration and strength to the trials and tribulations that we can all face in life. Relying on powerful spiritual truths, the author will lift you up and encourage you in your faith as you follow Kata on her life’s journey where you might find your own story within the pages of this exhilarating novel. None of us are exempt from life’s tragedies and tribulations. We all have our own grief to bear and burdens to carry. This novel will point you to the One that cares for you. Truly an encouraging, captivating, faith builder!

This book would make a wonderful ministry tool to those who are weary or to those that do not know Christ. One can look at your own life through the pages of this intricate novel and find that there is a familiar sense that we’ve all been there before. This novel will leave you with an undeniable and unshakable faith. A true mini-series in the making and I will be looking forward to the next sequel!

Too many times I come by author blogs that are created more so for the author than the visitor and reader of the blog. It's as if the author has designed their blog to make a statement or just to get their name up in lights.

A authors blog should be tailored to the visitor, the reader or the book lover. It should be created with simplicity in mind providing just enough information to capture the readers attention. The whole purpose of a authors blog is to promote, market and share your books with book lovers and readers.

So what should the basis of a authors blog be built upon?

1) A short description about the author with a authors head shot.
2) A short description about the book with a cover shot of the book.
3) Some reviews about the book.
4) A sneak preview into 1 or two pages of the book.
5) Where and how to order the book.
6) Some links that share where and how to order the book.
7) Some other short interesting writings or poetry to share with interested readers.

Of course from the above list one could become creative, but the who purpose of a authors blog is to create a simple marketing blog that showcases the book 1st, the author 2nd and how and where to order the book or books 3rd.

Expand Your Authors Blog Reach

If your using a blog to promote and market your books, there are ways to increase your online presence and reach, get your name out there and attract attention to your authors blog. In the last post I shared the benefits of the Blog Catalog. In this post I want to share Technorati with you.

Building A Authors Blog

Creating a authors blog is a great way to market and promote your books. Every author needs a authors site or authors blog. Many authors choose to use both.

With a blog you become part of the online blogging world and it's huge with millions upon millions of users and readers. Blog owners have the ability to network with other bloggers, in great blogging communities and great social networks.

Blogger offers free blogs and has some great templates to choose from. The design program is easy to use and even a beginner can create a simple blog. Wordpress offers free blogs and have some great templates and design goodies. However, Wordpress is not for the novice.

author blogs

Are you fast into promoting and marketing your books. If that is the case, I would imagine that you are following the authors buzz circuit. Blink, I'm sure your wondering what the authors buzz circuit is? Me too, but what it boils down to is all these authors running around from site to site trying to get their name in lights while creating some fame and book buzz.

That's when authors attempt to pump up their book sales by hanging out at authors sites. You know, these cool sites where gazillions of authors register, hang out, interact and try and sell each other their books. Now that's targeted marketing. Imagine McDonalds trying to sell In N Out Hamburgers and french fries.

1st let me encourage you that while it is a lot of fun to hang out with other authors and writers, interact and share information. Authors write books and only make up for a very small tiny percentage of book buyers. In fact it's so tiny that it's not worth mentioning. You must not fall into that trap believing that you will find success selling your books on authors sites. Yes I know you get the cool profile pic, you can uplaod your book cover, create a description, click a few buttons and there you are in lights. Along with a kazillion other authors and books. Impressive.

Don't get me wrong there are a few premire sites out there that as a author you want to get pluged into. However authors that run around from site to site to site registering and interacting at these authors sites will find their inbox and email filled with not book sales, but simply online interactions, which can be fun by the way. However, I believe that what every author is hoping for is book sales. Right?

All authors must find the market that their book falls into and tap into that market and just because some forum, group or site has a room set to the side that your book falls into doesn't mean anything when it comes to sales.

Focus on the following:

1) A Authors site or blog. (This is a must)
2) A sister site or sister blog. (It's nice to have a fulltime salesmen)
3) Promoting and marketing those sites. (Bingo, this is key)
4) Prime networking using targeted marketing. (Marketing 101)

The above 4 things should be your 1st priority for online marketing. You must create your own network that shares you as author, about your book, contact information, additional content of interest and where and how to order your books. Then you must market your site, blog and network.

Author Book Marketing & Blogs

Every author must have a authors site of blog. However, in this post lets talk blogs. Blogs provide you with a great way to promote, market and share your book online. With a blog you can also join other great blogging communities, networks and social clubs that you can't with a website. With a blog you can add your blog address to many profiles in endless networks, communities and social communities that do not except websites. You see, the blogging world is a HUGE online world and a world of it's own.

With a blog you can easily upload photos, place daily content posts, add other great online programs, services, images and all sorts of things that are usually built right into the design and management program. With a blog you can create a simpe easy promotions and marketing platform or a intense platform.

Many times authors either don't have the experience or the time to design and create a authors blog. If that's you, contact us as we can help.
