Imagine finally publishing your book… only to realize you’re just beginning to think about where your readers will come from. 🤔
After months or years of writing, editing, designing, and preparing your book for publication, that’s a lot of pressure to put on launch day.
But what if you could begin connecting with those readers while you’re still writing?
In this episode of the Book Magic Podcast, we’re talking about how starting a Substack before your book is published can actually help you deepen your writing while expanding the larger conversation around your book and beginning to gather a community of people who care about the ideas you’re here to share!
🎧 Inside this episode, you’ll discover:
* Why building your author platform doesn’t need to wait until your book is finished
* How Substack can give your deeper ideas more room than a social media caption
* How writing regularly can help you develop your voice and notice the themes you keep returning to
* Ways to use Substack whether your book is still an idea, already being written, or preparing for publication
* How your newsletter, podcast, social content, and future book can become part of one connected body of work
* Why you don’t need a huge audience for your Substack to start making a meaningful difference
* A simple first step for deciding what your own publication could be about
Your book may still take months or even years to write and publish.
But you don’t have to wait until launch day to start sharing your ideas, strengthening your voice, and building relationships with the people who may eventually become your readers!
After you listen, tell me in the comments: What’s one subject you could imagine writing about again and again?
I’d love to hear what you’re dreaming up! 📖🌈
