Carol is the perfect mix of what you look for in an event planner: she is knowledgeable, accessible, and attentive. She knows her audience as well as the resources at her command; shake (not stir) liberally with some outside-the-box thinking, and you have the makings for a near-perfect event.-Kim and Danny Adlerman, authors of Africa Calling and How Much Wood Could a Woodchuck Chuck?

In The Author's Guide to Planning Book Events, award-winning author and accomplished book-event coordinator Carol Hoenig provides the know-how to show authors how to
- Find and choose the perfect venue
- Plan an event for optimum results
- Build on each success to reach more readers
