Seeking Blue Publicity

Seeking Blue has launched with some success and now comes the hard part: marketing and promotion. I've been busy on social media, encouraging reviews and discussions on Goodreads and Amazon, crafting a press release and scheduling book signings to continue to get the word out about my novel.

Here are my head shot and bio, which can be used for publicity purposes. (Feel free to copy and paste this or any photos from this site when you share.)

Andrew Kensley, Author

Andrew Kensley writes about wellness and healthcare for Mind & Body Magazine and the University of Colorado Health Insider.

His parenting column, Wee Wisdom, appeared every other week from 2009 to 2013 in the Fort Collins Coloradoan, during which time he also wrote travel content and features.

Andrew is a contributor to Fort Collins Magazine, his short fiction has appeared in the Owen Wister Review, and his work has also been featured in the family travel website, Momaboard.com.

When he's not writing, husband-ing, parenting or otherwise enjoying himself in the beautiful Colorado outdoors, Andrew works full time as a physical therapist, a career which he has thoroughly enjoyed for 18 years. A native of Montreal, Canada, he now happily resides in Fort Collins, Colorado, with his wife and two daughters, with no plans to leave anytime soon.

Seeking Blue is his first novel.

I still think that because of the subjective nature of literature, word of mouth is the best form of advertising. But that doesn't preclude moving forward aggressively with getting the word out. The key is disseminating information to people who don't know me and have never heard of me, and therefore wouldn't search for my work in the first place. My large circle of friends and family have helped tremendously, and I am so appreciative of all the support. But I need more.
