Besides designing books, Robin Brooks of Song of Spring Designs also creates materials for authors to promote their books.

Robin creates promotional materials for authors to send out via snail mail or through an email. She also designs author websites, can create your fixed layout eBook, or oversee the conversion of your reflowable eBook (as shown above).
Whether you are self-publishing your book for the world or for your family and friends, there are times you would like to let people know of the monumental task you have accomplished.

The image above shows several components Robin designed to help promote Cliff Hakim's Walk in My Shoes: The Path to Empathy and Compassion. From left to right: a "pitch" sheet, letterhead in Word, business card, note paper, bookmark, shipping label, and sell sheet. Pictured are also the Book page of the author website she designed, produced, and maintains that includes a comprehensive Press & Media Kit and full Order/Ship setup. Robin carefully oversaw also the conversion process for a flowable eBook.

I got goose bumps when I saw this “pitch” sheet. Just GREAT and BEAUTIFUL, a template for other renditions. The placement of the shoes is just right; they bookend the book’s title. I love the way you twist things creatively to give them a voice and a presence.

This is a promotional mailer that Nancy Learned Haines sent out to introduce her book We Answered with Love.
This is a wonderful book about two pacifists in World War I who fell in love through a year of letters.

Laura is the daughter of socialists active in the labor movement and granddaughter of Russian Jewish social revolutionaries, called “reds,” “commies,” and “subversives,” often blacklisted during the McCarthy era. She is also blind and deaf. A remarkable feat and a fascinating read.
