FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) June 14, 2005 --
Orlando, FL, June 14, 2005—Author Michael T. Owens is holding an EBAY auction for item number: 5589986656, a full page ad in his latest novel entitled: A Dream Come True. The advertisement will appear in every book printed between September 2005 (when the book is released) and March 2006.
“Unlike major best-selling authors, I don’t have a multi-million dollar marketing budget!” Owens writes in his auction listing. He is no stranger to advertising. After being laid off as an advertising executive, he wrote Pick-Up Lines, his first novel. Since then, his work has been featured in anthologies and several national magazines.
Advertising in publications isn’t new but Owens hopes to add his own twist. “Corporations like McDonalds, Taco Bell, and Pepsi advertise in movies all the time. Why not do the same in books?” he says in his ad. He promises nothing inappropriate will be advertised. The winning bidder’s ad must be approved by him.
