First book trailer

My first book trailer video

Horror, Marketing, WritingBy LeeOctober 21, 2021Leave a comment

I’ve resisted book trailers for a long time. I thought they were ineffective and most of the ones I had seen were poorly made. I may have seen the light. I come from a graphic design background and spent ten years working in the visual effects industry. I had the skills to put together a…

My struggle with advertising

Marketing, Notes, WritingBy LeeJune 1, 2017Leave a comment
