Keeping things local in some ways – even with the bigger outlets has really helped me sell a piece to an editor. Have a lot of success, even with fiction – I pull out themes from the book that I can write about with some authority, some interesting angles, and something very, very current.

You make it sound like writing a 27 word logline, or a 100 word Flash Fiction. It’s a puzzle isn’t it? And there aren’t any edges to start with. Ha.

In reply to Author Kristen Lamb. That would make sense.

I was about to just simply give this blog a quick gloss over, but was immediately captivated by its rich content and clear style. I’m a follower now. Writing a novel (albeit short one) and finally self-publishing is a completely satisfying endeavor. I have no doubt of that, but I soon discover there’s more to writing yet still, writing to market my books. I find this blog most helpful. Kristin and Lisa, thank you.

Reblogged this on Kelly Rae & Jocelyn Bell Books and commented: Another great blog post. Kristen Lamb and the WANA Team are always so informative and helpful. As much as I have read this week about how reviews/reviewers are scaring writers away, it sure is nice to be reminded that the writing community itself, is full of kind and generous souls looking out for each other. Writing is a solitary thing, but branding, marketing and sales are definitely a community effort. For informative posts and news that really matters to writers this bog is a must follow! Have a gorgeous day!

In reply to Tam Francis. In my POV it is just another brick in a sturdy platform. But Lisa is more qualified to answer this.

Thanks Kristin and Lisa. This is interesting and not something I’d thought of. I’m wondering how this combines with social media. Is it a big blitz? Ahhhh, so far to go…
