Whether traditionally or independently published, authors are expected to promote and market their books to some extent. Beginning authors are often unsure where to focus their efforts, so we often end up trying to be everything, everywhere all at once, with little to show for all the blood, sweat, and tears. Jeannie Lin’s “Hard Facts about Marketing as an Author” discusses lessons learned from someone who has been though the ups and downs of marketing as both an author and an entrepreneur. From social media, to publications, to Amazon, to Kickstarter – here’s a candid talk about what to focus on and what to possibly let go when trying to get your books out to the world. More about Jeannie Lin at: http://www.jeannielin.com/
