Marketing

As you know, I am totally new to this publishing/marketing thing. When I self-published my

book through Barnes and Noble Press, I was under the impression that bookstores could order my book and sell it in their stores. Apparently, that is not the case. It can only be ordered online. I am disappointed because a couple of booksellers had told me they would consider selling it in their stores. If I can find a traditional publisher to publish it, that will resolve this issue. Wish me luck!
