Book Clubs saved me.
When my debut novel was released on March 10, 2020, I thought all was lost: the global pandemic was upon us! All my appearances were cancelled. Bookstores closed down, libraries went on hiatus, and Amazon stopped shipping physical books. (Luckily, eBooks and audioBooks were still flying out the door). So I reached out to book clubs on social media and asked them to talk to me. One by one, they did. When everyone else was feeling isolated during COVID, I was talking to as many as 4 book clubs a day on Zoom. To date, I’ve spoken to 1200, and I love doing it! Why not join me for an hour to hear why my characters do the things they do? Just email me: alka@alkajoshi.com
