Engaging Readers Through Your Online Author Presence
Be Where the Readers Are
I get it. You don't know how to or have the time to do a website. You hate Facebook. You don't understand Twitter. You want a big publisher to swoop you up and do all your marketing and promotion for you.
Unfortunately, I have bad news for you. The modern writer is largely if not completely responsible for their marketing and promotion these days, no matter how she is published.
More bad news: your readers are online. They're doing social media, and they're buying books online. They validate authors (and everyone else) by Googling them. They'll expect to hit your website and those pesky social media sites (and a lot more).
But there's good news: your online presence is largely free. You can prioritize your involvement and make your time investment efficient and effective.
Best of all: your readers are always only one click away from buying your book online, with just a suggestion/nudge.
It's all about being in the right place, at the right time, in the right way, and I can teach you how.
