How's this for book promotion

Maryann Reid has come up with an innovative way to promote her new book,
Marry Your Baby Daddy and help folks get married:

four months left to go until September 29. On that day, will be the first
ever mass wedding of its kind in the nation. Ten unmarried couples w/children
will be married during a landmark event called Marry Your Baby Daddy Day.
The FREE mass wedding will be officiated by the acclaimed Dr. Rev. Herbert
Daughtry in Brooklyn, NY. Since news first hit the airwaves in January, we've
been flooded with calls from vendors, dress designers and wedding planners
vying to make this a very memorable and important moment in the lives of
10 loving, fantastic couples! Not to mention hundreds of calls from marrying
couples, grandmothers, fathers, aunts, etc.Well, now you can get to see who
the 10 lucky couples are! Log on to www.marryyourbabydaddy.com to view
couple photos, information on the book Marry Your Baby Daddy that started
it all, and learn more about the author/founder/visionary, Maryann Reid.
A percentage of the proceeds from the book, Marry Your Baby Daddy will
be going to charity. Marry Your Baby Daddy will be published in September
by St. Martins Press. It's an effort to strengthen 2 parent households and shed
light on the high 70% out of wedlock rate in the Black community. We want
to "bring black love back in style" and have fun while doing it!Please support
us as we try to uplift our community and families.

Now all the author has to do is write another book that can help these soon-to-be-married couples stay together.
