Conferences and Events
Conferences are a great place to sell books. People are enthusiastic about meeting authors and having their books signed. If you give an interesting and lively presentation that's all the better for sales of your book. Here are a few conferences we've attended and contact people for them. Pitch yourself as a speaker!
