Dear all,

I've decided to go self publishing on my first novel Jacob Jones. (MAD or what)

I have a short promotional video promoting the book coming soon and I wondered if you would please give me your input... for all those that don't know, Jacob Jones is a children's fantasy novel.

If you like it feel free to add it to your Facebook friends that would be much appreciated. wouldn't have got this far without everybody help from this site so thank you all.

Hi Victoria,

First thank you so much for adding to FB.

The video was a hook to get people talking.

I do very much understand what people say about it sounding like Harry Potter and I wished I could drop (the order of seven) but the story is about a order of seven people and a boy who needs to find a book that holds the names of seven.

You will be happy to know there are no wizards lol but there is a magic world.

The next Video will give a lot more and the release date...

Thanks once more

I've added it to my Facebook. I would just like to echo the point it doesn't give enough clue to genre. Although it does sound a little like a Harry Potter title and that gives a clue, it could still be a murder mystery. I only mention it as I felt the need to mention it was a YA when I added it to my page.
