When I needed to have a press release done for my children’s middle grade fantasy book, Walking Through Walls, I immediately went to Donna McDine at Dynamic Media Release Services (http://www.donnamcdine.com/dynamicmediareleases.html). Donna did a great job, exceeding my expectations. The release and distribution was professional and effective. I highly recommend Dynamic Media Release Services.

Interview with Donna McDine by Maggie Ball
Donna McDine is an award-winning children's author, and this is reprint of an original interview by Maggie Ball at http://magdalenaball.blogspot.com/.
What made you set up Dynamic Media Release Services?
As I progressed in my writing career I started to learn the importance of marketing and what it entailed and one of the crucial components is writing an effective media release. As time went by one of the most voiced frustrations of authors was finding the time to market themselves and their books all the while still finding the time to write. A light bulb went off after spending a year at the Stories for Children Magazine as the marketing manager and realized this was the time to create this valuable service to others.
Why is writing a good release important?
Like blogging, developing a noteworthy and catchy title is instrumental in grabbing your reader’s attention. We live in such a high paced society many people scan the headlines first before sinking into the meat of an article. Very much like hooking an editor or publisher with a terrific opening line to your manuscript. Getting to the point quickly and not putting too much fluff into a media release is essential so you don’t loss the attention of the reader from the onset.
What can you offer that individuals will find difficult to do themselves?
Since I am an author myself I know how difficult it is to edit out my own words. However, creating and editing another writer’s promotional material works for me with a fresh pair of eyes. Not being married to someone else’s words like my own makes this process flow quite simply.
Talk to me a bit about the process you go through for each person who uses your services.
Once initial contact is made I request the author to send me the following:
· Book Sell Sheet
· Synopsis
· Book Reviews
· Bio
While reviewing the documents I take notes to ask the client and depending on the client the next exchange of information is either conducted via email or telephone. It is completely up to the client what is more comfortable for them. Afterwards I write-up the draft media release and submit to the client for review. Upon approval by the client I submit the media release to various online media release sites. Once the email confirmations are received I forward to the client for their verification of posting and links. I also encourage the client to utilize their new media release in their online and print media kits and to distribute to their networks.
What is your ideal market?
I primarily work with children’s book authors at this time and I’m open to working with different types of clients.
Maggie, thank you for taking the time out to interview me, I look forward to interacting with your visitors.

Dynamic Media Release Services ~ Testimonial
I am pleased to share with you a testimonial from another satisfied client of Dynamimc Media Release Services:
September 3, 2010
"When my latest book came out, I was excited. I also knew it needed publicity; otherwise, it would fade away into that black hole with other books that no one ever heard of, forgotten, as though it never existed. I needed a Media Release to spread the word. But with all my other obligations when would I find the time to write one? What would I say if I did have a few hours to compose a release? I hadn’t a clue.
Reading my friend Donna McDine’s blog one day solved my problem. She has posted many releases she’s written for authors. Very creative releases. So I contacted Donna, sent her the information on my book and less than two weeks later the Media Release was in my mail.
She took the title of the book, Caves, Cannons, and Crinolines, and showed how each item worked with the other to tell the story. What a unique way to draw attention. So if you’re pulling your hair out over writing a Media Release, I recommend Donna. She’ll write one for you that you‘ll want to post all over the Internet."

"If you're too busy to write and distribute a press release about your book, or simply aren't sure how to go about it, I can whole-heartedly recommend Donna McDine's publicity services. She writes excellent press releases. Best of all, she's fast!
Two days after Donna posted the press release my book went higher in ranks on Amazon from the 200,000s to the 14,000s!"
