It's finally finished. Once again, in order to support my work as a writer, I've had to learn a whole pile of new skills. This time, to create a new video trailer for my Christmas novella.
To my own amazement, it's done and I'm actually pretty happy about it. Check it out here.
In order to create this strange little, happily flawed little gem, I had to continue to perfect my understanding of, and skills with, a number of computer programs that come standard with my iMacs: Garageband, iMovie, and iTunes. I also had to practice my announcing voice and my piano skills.
It ended up being quite a challenge but also a lot of fun. Especially since I'm so happy with the result.
Now, as I've said before, I have to figure out how to promote the video I've created to promote my book. So I am actually promoting my promotional materials.
I don't think I've ever begged so often and so hard for people to "favourite", "share" and "retweet" my messages.
So far, so good, however. The Facebook announcement I posted has been viewed by more than 300 people in the couple of hours since I posted it. And we're already past 15 views on the video itself, which isn't too bad.
Still, I'll keep working on promoting it. And I'll keep working on putting the novella to bed with our new on-line printer and on setting up our pre-launch party in my home town.
At some point, I wouldn't mind getting back to writing.
