- 3:06Speaker 1: on for authors and for readers. Okay, so all of
- 3:12Speaker 1: you guys know that the States are back and I
- 3:18Speaker 1: know you thinking states trees. What are you talking about?
- 3:21Speaker 1: Remember you guys the author in the states. Here is
- 3:27Speaker 1: your chance to represent your state in twenty twenty six
- 3:32Speaker 1: to twenty twenty seven. Okay, so all the states and
- 3:37Speaker 1: the five territories are up for grabs. Okay, why should
- 3:43Speaker 1: I choose a state? Author? Say? Okay, because this is
- 3:47Speaker 1: a chance to showcase your brain. Authors, sometimes you have
- 3:52Speaker 1: to think outside it about sometimes you have to be
- 3:55Speaker 1: creative when it comes to marketing your book. Okay, so
- 3:59Speaker 1: this is opportunity. So how can you represent your brand
- 4:07Speaker 1: your book? Authors? Here's your chance? Okay. So there are
- 4:13Speaker 1: three qualifications in order to choose a state, but there
- 4:18Speaker 1: are some exemptions, so pay attention. Okay. The three qualifications
- 4:23Speaker 1: one born in that state, Two live in that state,
- 4:30Speaker 1: or three the basis of your story has to be
- 4:36Speaker 1: in that state or territory. Could remember we're doing the
- 4:40Speaker 1: five territories. Also, now we all know that there are
- 4:46Speaker 1: some states that are always up the ground, like Ohio, Oklahoma, Kentucky,
- 4:57Speaker 1: those states. If you want to grab those, those will
- 5:00Speaker 1: be on the first come, first sir. Okay, but really
- 5:04Speaker 1: go for the state where your book is seven in
- 5:07Speaker 1: where you currently reside or where you were born. Okay,
- 5:12Speaker 1: that is only thirty six dollars. But here is a bonus.
- 5:21Speaker 1: Let's say you want to cover, Okay, you want your
- 5:27Speaker 1: face on one of the fifty state covers. There is
- 5:31Speaker 1: an additional fee for that that is twenty five and
- 5:36Speaker 1: it'll be printed, and that gives you a total sixty one. Okay,
- 5:41Speaker 1: why would you want to printed? Do you know how
- 5:44Speaker 1: cool it is to have that magazine in print with
- 5:50Speaker 1: your face your state in your book? Is building a
- 5:54Speaker 1: legacy that you will contribute to. Okay. So remember five states,
- 6:04Speaker 1: I mean five territories in the fifty states. Okay. That
- 6:07Speaker 1: magazine is going to come out in either June or August.
- 6:12Speaker 1: We're pushing for June. Okay. So that's that one, okay,
- 6:18Speaker 1: and the one that everybody has been talking about. You guys,
- 6:25Speaker 1: here is your chance to have your book on the billboard. Okay.
- 6:30Speaker 1: My daughter participated in the past poetry book that was
- 6:38Speaker 1: put out by Angela Thomas Smith, one of the youngest
- 6:41Speaker 1: Ofthors to ever contribute. Okay, So you guys, what I
- 6:44Speaker 1: did was her face was on the billboard. Okay. When
