Falling Under

I spent a weekend making a book trailer and found it to be not only fun--but helpful. It was like connecting a different part of my brain to the writing process. Searching the web for pictures that made me "feel" my setting, characters, and mood has been good for my revisions I think. And the MUSIC--I love this song so much.

So, as a reader--do you ever look for book trailers? I confess, I never have. I've seen some really bad ones though, and they turned me off. I'm going to start checking youtube for more now--if nothing else than to give me ideas.

As a writer--have you ever made book trailers and what was your experience with them?

  5. Hi Gwen,
    I just watched your trailer and it's great! I actually have one for my YA book on my site, but I have to admit that I didn't create it. Great job on yours:-)
