Just because you can't attend a convention in person doesn't mean you can't get the word out. There are several things you can do to market your work long distance.

• Find out if Broad Universe will be hosting a sales table at the convention. If so, a whole team of smiling Broads will be on hand to make sure your book receives the attention it deserves. And please, if you use the sales table, remember to volunteer some of your time in some other way to help Broad Universe in exchange. There are hundreds of ways to help, from big to small.
• Find out what book dealers will be at the convention. Most convention Web sites have a listing of dealers that will be present in the dealer's room. See if you can send books in on consignment.
• Send flyers, bookmarks, or other marketing paraphernalia to the convention organizers (check the convention website for mailing address or other contact info), or to a friend or Broad who will be attending the convention. They can see that these items are placed on the freebies table.
• Write an article for any newsletters that are going to be published in and around the convention.

Please send in other ideas if you have any: info(at)broaduniverse.org.
