So even though I look natural, that all took quite a few takes.<br /><br />And yes, it was just me and Barbara, hehe ;-) YA Sleuthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12371132883359264412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467906296798575973.post-87364971240762469322013-08-07T16:52:34.783-05:002013-08-07T16:52:34.783-05:00This interview is just great, F.T!

I like the setting, in your home. You come across as a real person, someone who'd be easy to talk with. And you really shared what's great about the book, in such a natural way, without hard selling. I'll be sure to use your video as a model. Thanks for sharing all your tips on how to get it done. Best of luck with your series.Trish Feehanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10617966589290792111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467906296798575973.post-63122130401630026192012-08-19T09:30:51.915-05:002012-08-19T09:30:51.915-05:00Hehe, you'll curse me while doing it :-) It...Hehe, you'll curse me while doing it :-) It's hard for us introverted authors... <br /><br />But as an added note: I'm finding that a lot of accounts and profiles I have all over the web allow me to upload it (your Amazon author page, Goodreads, SCBWI speaker profile, etc.). So it's a pretty cheap tool, if you consider where all it can go and help you get the word out.<br /><br />Hope you'll let me know if you end up making one, Irene!YA Sleuthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12371132883359264412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467906296798575973.post-39945469669478313952012-08-19T07:18:51.578-05:002012-08-19T07:18:51.578-05:00What a great job you did on this video!

I've just been debating on whether to put in the time and/or money to do a video for 2nd novel, coming in Oct - you may have pushed me over the "do it" edge. Not sure if I should thank you or curse you. :)Irene Lathamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04905936104127707762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467906296798575973.post-40023937922354722692012-08-16T15:50:05.255-05:002012-08-16T15:50:05.255-05:00I shot probably half an hour's worth of footag...I shot probably half an hour's worth of footage, most of it of me messing up, or huffing because it was July :-) Editing software made this...YA Sleuthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12371132883359264412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467906296798575973.post-83599043452164125942012-08-16T13:13:28.058-05:002012-08-16T13:13:28.058-05:00I think you were very successful in conveying the ...I think you were very successful in conveying the story, being likable, being approachable.
