To help authors succeed, “Award-Winning Publicity” Author Liz H. Kelly will provide book marketing strategy tips at WBNA-Los Angeles on Sat, June 27, 2026.
LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, June 23, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Number 1 Bestselling Author (“Award-Winning Publicity”) and Goody PR Founder Liz H. Kelly will present proven book marketing strategies for authors during a Women’s National Book Association – Los Angeles (WBNA-LA) workshop this Saturday, June 27, 2026, called “Bring Your Book to Life.” Based on 20+ years of public relations experience, Kelly will discuss her proven 8-Step publicity process for how to promote a brand with a “Wow Story” that gets reporters to say, “Yes, I want to cover that story.”
This author workshop is part of Kelly’s summer speaking tour to help authors succeed. Kelly most recently shared public relations tips at the National Press Club in Washington D.C., and will also be doing a Book Talk at Barnes and Noble Santa Monica, on Wed, August 6, 2026.
As the author of three books and a top book publicist, Liz H. Kelly emphasizes, “I know how hard it is to write, publish and promote a book, and am honored to share author marketing tips at the Women’s National Book Association – Los Angeles workshop. I wrote ‘Award-Winning Publicity’ to help authors increase awareness of their work, build thought leader credibility and ultimately drive them business and book sales.”
During this WBNA-LA workshop called, “Bring Your Book to Life: How to Set Your Book Up for Marketing and Sales Success”, Kelly will discuss how authors can build visibility, attract readers, and create a successful marketing strategy for their books. To provide an author success roadmap, Kelly’s new “Award-Winning Publicity” book includes a complete Book Marketing Checklist with 75 steps to take Before, During and After Publishing.
To help authors get their story out there, Kelly will share publicity tips with case studies for how to get earned media interviews on top media outlets, including CNN, PBS, Fast Company and NPR. For example, Kelly will explain how Goody PR secured a 20-minute feature story on Pioneer PBS for an author client – and how that story won an Upper Midwest Regional Emmy Award®.
In addition to Kelly’s WBNA-LA presentation, award-winning author, speaker, podcaster, and The Book Proposal Expert Debra Eckerling, will share insights on developing a compelling book proposal, clarifying your vision, and attracting the attention of agents and publishers.
