"Dorothy Thompson is the Queen of the Virtual Tour. She knows her business. Dorothy has gotten me more publicity in a shorter time than all of the other pr people I have worked with put together. In addition, she has opened a new world of internet marketing to me. She has definitely moved me up the search engines. And that's what we authors want, isn't it?"

"...thank you for such a wonderful job - can't even begin to tell you how impressed I am..."
--Jane Green, NY Times Bestselling author of SECOND CHANCE
"I don't think people realize how much work it is to promote your book. Jeez, writing the book is the easy part!!! I really thank Dorothy for putting my virtual tour together. I've had a few other writers ask me if I did this. My writing mentor was very impressed. But I told them I wouldn't have even known where to start. Sure you can ask a few friends to host you, but how do get the schedule together without going crazy? There's no way I could have done the tour by myself."
--Kim Baccellia, author of EARRINGS OF IXTUMEA
"When I began promoting the release of "Only Moments" I contracted a very high image Public Relations company. I got a few radio interviews but not one review, and no web exposure whatsoever. I only wish that I had met Dorothy Thompson and her “Pump Up Your Book Promotion” a few months earlier. Her tireless commitment gave me exposure beyond my expectations and at a tenth of what I paid one of the best Public Relations firms in the country."
--Nick Oliva, author of ONLY MOMENTS

Thanks for everything, Dorothy. You're a pro!"

And then Dorothy Thompson has been wonderful, working so hard on my behalf, getting me reviews, and interviews like this one, giving me an opportunity not just to talk about my book, but to meet a world of new and interesting people. And I’ve been so touched by how welcoming and kind and interested you (Rebecca Camarena) and other hosts have all been."
