The routine continues. Separate and deliver the papers in the morning. Ideally try to alternate who gets what although most people don’t really seem to read them. I guess they don’t have the time. This doesn’t really take long and after this I get to work on my second mailing list. This one is also a Fodor’s guide but the mailing list needs to be a lot more specific. The title is “The Travelling Marathoner” and as the name suggests it is about marathon running and sightseeing (simultaneously?) in the United States. I cannot imagine that many people are waiting for this book but there is some crazy stuff out there. Loads of running, marathon and specifically American tourism magazines exist that I would have never imagined. I also did not send a press release to the normal travel editors or literary supplements, as it is important not to swamp someone regularly with everything you are going to publish. They will just disregard it in the end or even worse associate you with one of your weaker titles. God knows how many titles and press releases they are send every day.
The rest of the day was spent doing some random mailings and working on my Da Vinci Code mailing list. There are now two of my press releases going around the UK.
