Superjij: Release and March Media Roundup - 28th Mar 2013
March has been a very special month for me, as my book Superyou went on general release in Belgium and the Netherlands (in Dutch “Superjij”); published by renowned publisher De Bezige Bij. It was welcomed with excitement and very positive feedback. The media-reaction was overwhelming:
A 5 page spread in quality newspaper De Standaard www.standaard.be
2 pages in quality newspaper De Morgen http://www.demorgen.be/
A noted appearance in TV talk show Reyers Laat: can be viewed here, I come in at about 28 minutes http://www.canvas.be/video_overzicht/215000
A nice 2 page portrait in the largest Belgian magazine Humo www.humo.be
A full page in the best-selling newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws http://www.hln.be/
A much coveted slot in Saturday morning radio talk show Interne Keuken http://internetradio.vrt.be/radiospeler/v2_prod/wmp.html?qsbrand=11&qsODfile=%2Ffiles%2Fredactie%2Fherbeluister%2F11_11inke.xml (I come in after half an hour)
A lunchtime interview on Radio 2
Unfortunately, aforementioned articles in the written press are all still behind paying walls, but should be available to everyone in the next few months.
More articles are in the pipeline, for instance in specialised magazine Psychologies and current affairs weekly magazine Knack.
As it was book week in the Netherlands last week, we decided to focus on April for promo over there. A first interview, for the largest Dutch paper, het NRC Handelsblad, a newspaper of outstanding quality, will be recorded shortly. Other media appearances have been booked for mid-April.
Superjij is available in all major outlets as well as online http://www.wpg.be/boeken/overzicht/isbn/9789085424505/
