Hello there writer friend!

Today's episode is a mini episode from a video I've received a lot of positive feedback on YouTube. As a writer, there are so many options for income earning! As a result, today I am talking about how I created 8 streams of income outside of my regular job! I want to inspire you to create those income streams as well! 

Some of these are tiny streams and some of these are big rivers of income, but either way, they lead into the ocean... ok?! Ok!

• Published book royalties- ALWAYS making me feel so excited and proud!

Not all of these streams of income are long term streams of income, but it is so nice to have all of these options AND MORE to pull out when and if I need them.

Hello, there writer friends!

This episode is inspired by a question I received on LinkedIn.  The question is how important is SEO to writers? The answer is very important, so I wanted to dedicate an entire episode to this topic. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is still alive and it is more important than ever that writers - whether you are freelance or work in corporate - gain a handle on it. I promise it is not as complicated as it sounds. In this episode, I break down the search engine optimization tips I used to help one of my former clients go from zero to 3000 organic visits from Google per month.

In this episode, you will learn:

• Why SEO is important?

Tools/links mentioned in this episode:

Chances are that if you have seen someone successfully doing ANYTHING, that they have built a habit around that thing.

For instance, one of the reasons I have not been able to podcast consistently (vulnerable moment here!) is because I had not built a habit around it. I am getting better but it still stands that if I had built a habit around it, I would be further along.

However, what I have been successful at building a habit of is writing. I am so proud of that! In today's episode, I am sharing 3 habits of successful writers and it may not be what you think so stay tuned!

Content marketing is one of the top ways I sell books. Most authors never sell more than 100 books and I want to save you from that. In my newest book, Content That Sizzles and Sells, learn how to use content to build an audience that loves you and is happy to buy from you.
