The Book Tourist: Seven Steps to a Wildly Successful Book Tour, compares and contrasts her efforts to promote her books as both a traditionally published and self-published author, and shares the things Liz has learned, soup-to-nuts, about how to sell books through successful book tour events.
The Book Tourist is her fourth book and first ebook.
A graduate of Emory University, where she was the only girl on the ice hockey team, Liz put herself through college by starting a lawn care service.
She describes herself as a "serial" entrepreneur, and has done such varied things as been a construction contractor, a terra cotta pottery importer, and a buyer and seller of large diamonds.
Liz lives in Sarasota, where she is a member of Toastmasters International and is active in local animal rescue efforts. She recently started a library for homeless people and has coordinated the donation of more than 6000 volumes to the homeless and needy people in her community.view less
