Last year, I made the finals
of a contest
which really boosted sales
of my romance novels.
This year, the same contest
is looking for entries.
If I enter my story,
not only will my story not be chosen
(because I made the finals last year)
but I’ll look like a selfish beyotch.
So what’s a promo ho like myself to do?
I promote another person’s story.
I use my powers to benefit others.
Doing this accomplishes a number of things.
I show my support of this contest
to the influential contest organizers.
I earn the gratitude of the other author.
Readers perceive me
as being generous.
Best of all, I feel good.
When you can’t market yourself,
consider marketing others.
Share the marketing love.
