This is the time of year when smart Publicity Hounds are creating
“Best of 2008″ lists to squeeze a few more publicity hits into
2008.
As for me, it’s time for my annual “Best of the Publicity Hound’s
Tips of the Week” ebook, my gift to you at Christmas, Hanukkah
and New Year’s. The ebook includes the best 24 tips from this
