Writers: This or That?

[Joss]

You HAVE to choose one and it can ONLY be one.

Let's say a publisher likes your book, but goes over promotion with you. Your agent is negotiating and the publisher won't sign you unless you agree to some type of promotion and/or marketing, which will be written in the contract. Which of these would you rather do as part of your promotion or marketing?

1) Twitter or Facebook account?

2) Blog tour or normal city-to-city tour?

3) Signing or reading? [not both this time]

4) Signing/reading in a bookstore or coffee shop?

5) Signing from your home (publisher sends you blank pages to sign to add to book at printing) or signing in public?

6) Local news interview or local newspaper interview?

7) Book tour with other authors or book tour alone?

8) Hardcover only or paperback only? [yep, they've given generously given you this choice, too!]

9) Have final say in cover design or final say in title? [can't be overruled by publisher]

10) Telephone interview or interview where they email you the questions?
