Are Book Trailers Worth It?

I’m guest blogging over at Do Some Damage today. I talk about my own thoughts and adventures with book trailers, and enlist the opinion of publishing and publicity professionals including Eric Campbell at Down & Out Books, David Ivester from Author Guide, and Wiley Saichek from Saichek Publicity.

If you have ever thought about making a book trailer, or if you wonder why more authors don’t, jump over to Do Some Damage and join the conversation.
