Launch w/ Love

Welcome to Author Promo with Heart.

Now more than ever, publishing is a team effort. But these days, I meet more and more authors who have no idea how to promote their books or themselves. They ask: Where do I start? What does the publisher do? And how can I do all of this without feeling completely overwhelmed?

You launch with love.

By creating something that’s completely you, we’ll help you launch your book (and yourself) into the world in a way that’s authentic, enthusiastic, and filled with joy. It’s less promo, more you sharing what you love.

It’s also a lot more fun.
See our new site, here.

How It Works

We’ll talk about you, your book, and your dream launch scenario. Then we’ll review what your publisher is doing, your goals, and make a plan for greatness. (And giddiness.)

Ad Gal + Band Maven + YA Author = Me.

I’ve been launching products and services for over twenty years. But I’ve also played in garage bands and “launched with love” before I even knew I was doing it. After launching my own award-winning novel with Philomel/Penguin, I discovered there’s a new way to do promo. This is my effort to share what I’ve learned and help fellow authors along the way.

Why Us?

What do you get when you combine a YA author/branding gal with a fun, wondrous designer and a director who makes kid’s films? A book launch team who knows what it’s like to launch, adores KidLit, and is all about making lil’ lovebombs readers will actually love.

Who can Launch w/Love?

Everyone! I specialize in young adult and children’s authors, but all authors are welcome. I love collaborating with literary agencies, publicists and publishers to help fill in the gaps and support a successful launch.

Questions? Interested? We’d love to hear from you.
