Reblogged this on Space, Time, and Raspberries and commented: Sorry I didn't know about Kristen Lamb last September, but I know about her now! If you're an author who wants to learn about branding, you should know about her, too.

I love going back and finding insight that I may have missed before. I wonder if enough people go back and read what they may have missed?

I have to admit, I’m quite excited about my Kindle reader. But I as well have to be careful not to go overboard. It’s so easy to buy and buy… without any control. Before the books I wanted to read were clearly collected in a clean and proper pile. And I was taking the one on the bottom because I got it first. But since I got my Kindle It’s different and I have to make a list. (And yes… I still got the older Kindle version with the keyboard – and love it.)
Thanks for another great post, Kristen.

You don’t know how right you are Kristen. I’m a Millennial. I was born into MySpace, YouTube, and Message boards. You’d think I would love social media. Truth is, I’m a private person so I actually can’t stand it.
However, I’m on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn because you are right. You have to be willing to brand yourself.

Thanks for the wonderful article. Shared it all over and reblogged. We have one used bookstore in town. Otherwise we have to drive over 30 miles to the nearest Barnes & Nobles. I remember when we had a B&N, BAM, B Dalton within a 1/4 mile of each other. It’s sad, but a fact of life, and one I confess to being very grateful for. I can’t drive, so Amazon keeps me in books. INSTANTLY!
