David is one of a new breed of authors who have decided to take the power of the Internet and use it for self publishing.



He created the story of a 19th century family protected by a ghost dog against a sinister killer. The target audience for the book ranges from ages 9 to 13 years of both sexes.

Miller created the book in association with illustrator, Julia Koop. With the help of 72andSunny Publishing, he has produced a unique campaign to promote the project.

The rise of websites like Youtube, Facebook, Myspace and others have allowed creative people to control the message and the medium without outlaying enormous expense.

Miller has set up a video trailer for the book "The Ghost of Bobby". The eerie soundtrack and dark animation chills the blood while the voice-over (created by the author) predicts the dangers which lie ahead.

The blogosphere and the online communities are great places to start a promotional campaign." said David.

The enormous growth of online clubs, newsgroups and net communities has not only allowed marketing experts to closely study the needs and habits of distinct market segments, it also allows for instant two-way communication and marketing feedback.

It allows authors to find out from readers if they like what they've read and if they want more. Blogs allow authors to even perform a virtual book tour as they guest blog and contribute to other author's sites and book reviewer's sites as well.

"We've found that we can sell a lot of books by first generating word of mouth marketing through the Internet." explained David. "The strategy is to get enough people to review the book by invitation, and have they promoted the book because they genuinely feel like doing It." said David Miller.
