58 year-old author Shawn M. Warner always dreamed of writing a book but had no one at his book signing at a local Texas grocery store. A couple of customers in the store wondered what was going on, decided to go back buy a book, and filmed the transaction.
One of those guys, Jerrad Swearenjin, posted the video on Tik-Tok about the problem and the book went to #1 on the Amazon Best Sellers list literally overnight!
Now there’s an idea for you songwriters! Make a short video with your song in it! And post it on Tik-Tok (while you can)! Who knows? Someone might really like it!
The book is titled “Leigh Howard And The Ghosts Of Simmons-Pierce Manor,” – your song is titled “(fill in the blank)!”
