An audio recording of my latest children's book by Rose Miller
Budget: £250 – £750 GBP
I wrote my book, titled 'Sergeant Grog and the Night of the Weasels', in July 2020, and it can be found on Amazon. The publishers didn't do any advertising so I tried to do this myself. I was interviewed in a local newspaper, then followed it up with a few book reading sessions at local schools and a library, did an advertising campaign through the Manchester Evening News, but I couldn't get it off the ground so I found a videographer and a TV actor called Rick Bithell and engaged them to come to my home to do a video recording of a couple of chapters. Unfortunately, the videographer let me down in a few ways and I wasn't too impressed with the recording, which can be seen on You Tube. However, Rick did his best and he looked good reading it. Also, a drag-artist friend of mine gave it a very nice review on his Podcast. The last thing I did was to have a Press Release made by PR for Books and it went out to various people showing my email address, but I only received two email responses saying that they were on holiday and would get back to me. Then Covid arrived and I didn't receive any further communications from them, nor from my publisher. I think they must have deserted there offices to work from home. Whatever! Nothing has happened since that time, and I am now thinking it would be a good idea to have an audio recording of the book to go on Amazon and was wondering who would be available to read this for me. I would love to have Sean Bean do this for me but I think he would be very expensive to hire. Perhaps you could help me in some way to get my book off the ground. Thank you. Rose Miller
