	Publicist
		The publicist is often the middleman between the high-profile personality and members of the media.

		But a split between two of the industry's heavyweight publicists has drawn the kind of attention that their star clients are desperate for during awards season, which kicks off today as Golden Globe nominations are announced.
		In boxing terms, publicists are the cut men to the stars: They stop the bleeding from bad publicity; psych up their fighter to come out swinging for a role, a magazine cover, an award; and, when the time comes, they throw in the towel when a film just isn't getting any awards notice.
		Publicists hold dozens of free screenings, followed by question-and-answer sessions with stars and directors to illustrate all the hard work that went into a film.

	Hiring A Publicist from the Romance Authors Page
		While a publicist may score a news medium placement as soon as an author signs on the dotted line, most will devote the first month to building a solid foundation for promotion.
		The publicist will want to read the author's books, study all promotional material she's already generated, all clippings, recordings of broadcast appearances and speaking engagements, bestseller lists made, awards won.
		A publicist's success should not be determined by measuring clippings but by assessing what overall impact she or he has had on an author's goals and objectives.

		The best time to secure a literary publicist is three to four months before the publish date, in order to allow for maximum amount of time to organize the campaign.
		When an author is pitching his own book, it is typically viewed as being too self-promotional. A publicist is seen as a third party and most journalists are more receptive to discussing a book with a publicist rather than the author.
		A publicist’s main job is media relations, scheduling interviews, book reviews and feature stories for a client. Occasionally, other services are offered, such as book tour coordination and promotion, media training and development of marketing materials.
