Welcome to the Goddess Fish Promotions Tenth Anniversary Month Long Celebration!
Who
is Goddess Fish Promotions? And what do we do? We're glad you asked!
We
didn't want your visit here to be dry and boring, so we decided to
have a poetry competition and put what we do into verse. Here are the
initial entries:
Marianne:
Roses
are Red.
Violets are Blue.
I'm awful at poetry.
Coffee.
Violets are Blue.
I'm awful at poetry.
Coffee.
Judy:
We
can edit your book
find things you didn't see
It will be fun to look
at the changes from me.
find things you didn't see
It will be fun to look
at the changes from me.
Yeah,
for some reason, Judy won!
Even
better, her poem is correct. We DO offer editing
as one of our options.
Here are a couple of testimonials from clients:
I
worked with Marianne on a complete edit and was very happy with the
results. Her feedback was clear, easy to follow, and she probed on
things I hadn’t thought of. She was also responsive whenever I had
questions and helped me work through a few issues. Her feedback and
guidance improved the quality of my manuscript, all at a very fair
price. I’m working on my next book and plan to use their services
again.

Mr. Anonymous
Choosing
the right editor for a project is incredibly important to an author.
Let’s face it, we want the best for our books. When I was
considering editors for my first indie-published book, Regenerate, I
naturally thought of Goddess Fish Promotions–and I’m so glad I
did.
Marianne
Arkins and Judy Thomas are incredibly attentive and professional
during the entire editing process. Their input was invaluable and the
story is much stronger because they cared enough to help unsnarl plot
points and find order in the chaos..
I
can’t wait to work with them again. Truly, a top-notch editorial
team!
- Sarita Leone, award-winning author of Regenerate
We also offer Virtual Book Tours, Graphic Design, Social Media Promotion and more. You can see more testimonials here.
We
hope you enjoyed getting to know us a little (more information is
below) and we'd like to do the same. We'd LOVE to see a little poem
that tells us a bit about you in the comments. We'll be awarding
random book giveaways and $5 Amazon GCs to some of the best poetry we
find. It might not be at every stop, but when something really makes
us smile, we'll reward it! Come on, be daring...
And
now, more about us:
About
Goddess Fish Promotions
Goddess
Fish Promotions was established October 14, 2008. Why? Well, when
Marianne became a published author and got her the first taste of
trying to promote a book on a budget, there was only one other
virtual book tour company in place at the time, and their fees were
simply too high for a small press author. After coordinating and
running her own tour, she knew other authors could use the same
service for a reasonable price. Thus, Goddess Fish Promotions was
born.
Because
both Judy and Marianne were authors and editors prior to running
Goddess Fish Promotions, they approach the business with a unique
point of view, and treat their clients how they would expect to be
treated.

Judy
Thomas
Judy
has a college degree in English and she’s worked in retail,
education, at her local library as well as an editor for a small
press and for the now defunct ShadowKeep Ezine. She’s also a
published author so can see things from both sides of the fence. In
2013, she “retired” and now spends her days helping authors make
their dream come true—as well as working as much as she can with
her local theater group.

Arkins
Grammar
freak and coffee lover, Marianne wrote her first novel at ten years
old, built her first commercial website in 2000, and published for
the first time in 2006. She worked as a professional editor for just
over a year, and knows what it’s like to write, edit and promote a
book on a budget.
