Award-Winning Southern Author

“Lynda Bouchard is the most personable and creative marketing professional I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. She tailors a marketing and publicity plan based on what you like to do–not what you’re expected to do. In our work together, I felt she got to really know me: my story, my background, and what makes me tick. Because of that deep work, I was able to land amazing press that made a difference not only in sales but in my relationships in the industry. Lynda Bouchard really cares about her clients, both as a creative and a professional. A total delight.”

“Marketing a book is even harder than writing one. I learned so much from Lynda. She’s focused, she gets stuff done, and she’s fun to work with.”


Ken Burger

“No one in this business is more hardworking, imaginative, fearless, straightforward and fun to work with.”


Mary Jane Clark
New York Times best-selling author of Dying for Mercy  (Macmillan)

“One of the most pleasurable book tours I ever had was due to the welcoming readers of South Carolina and Booking Authors Ink. Not only did Lynda greet me at the airport and get me to book events on time but she gave me a delightful walking tour of Beaufort, educated me on some of the history of the Low Country, took me to the best restaurant for fried green tomatoes and made sure that I was ensconced for the night in a beautiful old plantation house. When we were all finished, I felt like I had been on a mini-vacation. Booking Authors Ink makes an author happy.”

Academy Award-winning director, actor & darn good golfer

Harvey Mackay

“If you want to maximize your time on your next book tour, I highly recommend you call Lynda at Booking Authors Ink. Her media savvy and knowledge of what it takes to promote you and your book made my tour in Charlotte, N.C. a standing room only, sold-out success. Lynda goes the extra mile to create the “‘wow” factor!“


Mary Monroe
New York Times best-selling author of God Don’t Like Ugly  (Kensington)

“I LOVED working with Lynda during my book tours to North and South Carolina. She made hectic days of visiting book sellers and entertaining my readers so much more enjoyable. I sincerely appreciated her attitude, her professional and direct approach to everything we did, her knowledge, her sense of humor, and her patience. I hope to work with Booking Authors Ink and her great team again soon.”
