Katie Davis on Huffington Post

Katie Davis reads from her book,
 Mabel the Tooth Fairy and How She Got Her Job
during the Savannah Children's Book Festival.
Congratulations, Katie!  You've worked hard and you deserve it.  What exciting news for the kidlit world.
Katie Davis is slated to have a regular feature about kids' book in the Huffington Post.


If you aren't familiar with the unique and talented Katie Davis, head on over to her website.  Katie is a children's book author and illustrator, but she also has a talent for marketing.  Tune in to Brain Burps, her weekly podcast, buy her ebooks, or participate in one of her webinars.  Katie is dedicated to helping book creators integrate technology into their businesses, build effective platforms, market their own books, and most importantly, find what makes us unique.  She is a boon to the world of children's books, and now, I hope, the rest of the world will learn about her passion for all things related to children's publishing.

I had the privilege to attend a SCBWI conference where Katie was speaking.  I can honestly say her way of thinking has affected many areas of my life, not just my career path.

Have you applied advice from Katie Davis to your book marketing?  Share your success story!  We'd love to hear from you.
