Because of the nature of my work, friends and families assume that I run out and buy every hot new device on the market. Everyone assumes I read only e-books. Of course, I know every single app in existence by memory. Oh yeah-and I know how to write code for a website, convert books to any e-book platform, and I do graphic design.

When I first moved to New York City and got my first job as a publicity assistant at Penguin, a friend in the industry took me to my first networking cocktail hour. She was very patient. This was uncharted waters for a Midwesterner new to the big city. She showed me how to ease into conversation and meet new people in a positive way–people who could help me down the road.

When I was preparing for my wedding in 2010 (disclaimer: that did not end well but I still looked pretty!) I took an interest in vintage fashion. I designed an Audrey Hepburn look, collecting truly authentic pieces, and researching hair and make-up styles, that I hoped would do my ensemble, and Audrey, justice. I think I succeeded, and I guess I did - I was even featured in an online wedding magazine: (link to: http://www.weddingdresses.com/real-wedding-style/2011/04/a-vintage-inspired-wedding/#.Ua9IwUDCaSo). I thought what I was doing was different and fresh! Little did I know that everything old is new again, sometime – and I was at the beginning of the trend bringing back old-timey looks!

Since being in business since 2004, I have to admit, I’m a sucker for two things: 1) creative marketing that makes you stop and think 2) good customer service. The two together are a deadly combination in business.

Confession: I have no formal training as a publicist. I have no degree in Communications, or Journalism, or Public Relations - and I have never claimed to! For me, PR was a job I fell into and in love with. It became a calling. And in my experience, while books and networking and workshops can be helpful, there’s nothing like being on the job for training. That, coupled with a solid broad-based liberal arts education that teaches you to think critically are the best “formal trainings” you can have to launch a career in PR.

In July, award-winning author Kenneth Wishnia’s video on “Moral Pollution” went viral. In response to this, Wishnia and his team joined forces with Circle of Seven Productions to create a book trailer that would visually represent the tone and plot of THE GLASS FACTORY(PM Press; August 2013; Trade PB: $16.99; E-book $9.99). Images of the tough-talking, street-smart Latina heroine hit readers’ monitors in this highly-anticipated video production.
