The partnership between Kimberlie Dykeman and Phenix & Phenix Publicity has begun to take beautiful shape having wrapped the first shoot for its Online Video PR Campaign and web-based Interview Series dedicated to authors and their stories. On its self-titled online channel, “Shelf Life” aims to deliver “Real People- Real Purpose- Real Perspective”.
Since inking their deal, Dykeman and the team of literary publicists have been hustling to create a truly one-of-a-kind, cutting-edge interview experience for both the authors and the eventual audiences.
“Seeing and hearing the authors speak of how their books came to be and their own interesting history literally breathes life into the pages.” says Dykeman, who carries the title of both Executive Producer and Host. “Audiences are going to be truly moved…expect to laugh and grab the tissues, folks!”
Authors included: Traci Slatton (Immortal) ; J.J. Austin, (It Starts With You!); Mark Pickering (Story of the Sand); r.b. mitchell (Castaway Kid); Steve Simpson (Runaway); Mike Thomas (A Harvest of Miracles) and Nate Self (Two Wars).
Dykeman’s relationship with Dallas’ AMS Production Group opened the door for their Austin studio to provide the perfect backdrop for this unique series. Stay tuned for the official launch of ShelfLife.tv coming soon. More can be read on www.phenixpublicity.com and http://www.phenixpublicity.blogspot.com.
