Tools & Tips ~ Forget the Filters ~ by Christie Rich

morgueFile free photos http://mrg.bz/S5hJS7 Forget the Filters by Christie Rich When I read, I want to experience the book, sink right in and become the main character, or at least tag along for a piggy back ride.  As a writer, my greatest wish is that my readers will have the same experience.  The trouble is it’s not that easy to get readers to see through the character’s eyes unless you learn a few things.  I’m still...

Tools & Tips ~ Building Your Platform

Build Your Platform By Laura Howard   Building your Following Slow and Steady You can't visit many writing blogs these days without running into the term “Platform”. Build your platform before you publish. The bigger your platform, the more people will know about your book. First, let me say that this isn't necessarily untrue. I just think that maybe the perception of what a platform is has become a bit fuzzy. When I imagine an “author's platform”, I think of the platform at a train station. On the platform is a person waving their...

Tools & Tips ~ It Takes a Village

It Takes a Village by Elizabeth Sharp That old adage It takes a village never applied more than it does in self-publishing. Many people think of writers as solitary beings locked alone in an office huddles over a keyboard. The truth is that while there is definitely some of that, there’s a lot more to it. Thanks to the rise of the ereader, authors no longer have to throw ourselves at the mercy of the big publishing houses and all their teams of editors, cover artists, and the like. So many people are involved in producing one book. Why should...
