Author Carolyn Howard-Johnson presents How to Get Great Book Reviews Frugally and Ethically Workshop at Genre-LA™ Speculative Fiction Writers Conference (1/28)

Los Angeles, CA, January 25, 2017 --(PR.com)-- On Saturday, Jan. 28 at 11:15 a.m., Carolyn Howard-Johnson, author of the multi-award winning "HowtoDoItFrugally" series of books for writers, will present a one-time only workshop entitled "How to Get Great Reviews Frugally and Ethically" at the 2017 Genre-LA™ Speculative Fiction Writers Conference, which runs Friday through Sunday, Jan. 27-29 at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel in Culver City.

This workshop coincides with the release of Howard-Johnson's 334-page book, "How to Get Great Reviews Frugally and Ethically: The ins and outs of using free reviews to build and sustain a writing career."

"This book is so comprehensive that I'll only have time to cover two of its topics," said Howard-Johnson who is also an award-winning novelist and poet. "They are my two favorites--how writers can make credible no-cost reviews the center of a marketing program and how to manage negative Amazon reviews."

Howard-Johnson's previous Do-It-Yourself books include "The Frugal Book Promoter," "The Frugal Editor," "Great Little Last-Minute Editing Tips for Writers," and "The Great First Impression Book Proposal."

This is the 16th annual conference sponsored by West Coast Writers Conferences. "We invite best-selling authors, educators and industry professionals who help writers raise the level of their writing and marketing skills," said Executive Director Tony N. Todaro. "If a writer is looking for a unique educational and inspirational opportunity, this is the one."

Howard-Johnson's comprehensive how-to books give readers the benefit of her years as both author and instructor for UCLA Extension's renowned Writers' Program.

"This is the first time since the early days of printing that authors have as much control over their own success as they are ever likely to have," said Howard-Johnson. "If there is one truth to remember, it is that marketing is marketing is marketing."
