Marketing with Melissa
More books, less burnout.
Hi, I'm Melissa. These days I'm happiest writing nonfiction and working in personal and professional development, so I'm moving away from fiction. Authors are still my people. You were the first community where I ever really belonged, and you're one I'll never leave. I run a seven-figure book marketing agency, and I don't have secrets, so everything I've learned about ads, launches, and selling more books lives in the four places below.

Meet Melissa
The Author Behind the Agency
I'm a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author who loves marketing as much as writing. I know that makes me unusual. Most authors would rather do anything else, and that's exactly why I built Novel Publicity. Today my team runs ads for more than one hundred authors.
I teach the way I wish someone had taught me. Clear steps, the exact clicks, and the reason behind each one. No guru talk and no secrets.
When I'm not teaching, I'm home in Alaska with my kiddo and a lively zoo of spoiled cats and dogs.
