Facing Demons flyer

What a perfect way to follow up a post about the legends at Beanpole Productions - with a spectacular flyer they designed for Facing Demons! Look at it, download it, show everyone, but most of all - enjoy!

 

This is a great example of an effective way for any author to market their books. I'll be taking this flyer with me on my Europe trip next week and dropping it wherever appropriate (without littering of course). I've also got bookmarks with a very similar design that I'll give out too.

Amazing Talent Showcase: Beanpole Productions

This is the first of many Amazing Talent Showcases I'll be doing. Each week I'll pick an author, artist, producer or small business whose brilliance and imagination are well worth a mention.

Today's amazingly talented person is Benny Dowie from Beanpole Productions.

Beanpole Productions is a South Australian based film and design studio who "love to create amazing and unique work."

Benny is the founder and owner of Beanpole Productions, and the mastermind behind all the spectacular creations. Beanpole's work involves filming, editing, special effects, and graphic design for a range of clients such as local bands' video clips, US longboard company Orangutang, and most recently a contract to film several promotional videos for wineries across Australia and New Zealand. Benny also does some freelance work and is often called up by other local film production companies who wish to take advantage of his amazing skill set.

So, before I finish up by giving you some links of where to connect with Beanpole Productions and watch all of their epic videos, how about sitting back and relaxing for a few minutes and enjoy the video SLIDE - A longboarding video by Benny which has received over a quarter of a million views on YouTube and Vimeo.

More Reviews for Facing Demons

I’ve been working with Irene Watson, managing editor of Reader Views, to get my pre-publication publicity on the right track. Part of this involves Irene and her team sending out galleys of Facing Demons to reviewers from various book review organisations. I posted my first review in April and have since received a couple more, which I’ll post in full here. So far my experience with Reader Views has been excellent, and I would highly recommend their very professional range of services for authors.
