Simone Jung

As a Books Forward publicist and a bookstagrammer with over 64,000 followers, Simone has always been compelled to share and promote amazing reads. She’s also written for Book Riot, Publisher’s Weekly and HelloGiggles, and she continues to run her own popular book blog today.

Her background as a book influencer brings an important perspective to book marketing and in guiding writers on strengthening their author brands.

Before becoming a publicist and social media strategist, Simone worked as a music and arts journalist while also managing customer support for a major tech company. She’s always encouraging people to pick up a book and read, and pointing them in the direction of a great story.
