The author life is a calling. Sometimes it comes early ... sometimes it is late ... and sometimes it’s on an intermittent basis. But it’s a calling to you to share your words. Your insights. Your stories.
Joining Dr. Judith Briles is bestselling and multiple award-winning author Mara Purl. The discussion: the roles of the Inner Author and the Outer Author.
The Inner Author’s work focuses on the author’s core values of self and for the book. It’s the place where the author:
-Writes what matters to him or her. The passion flows through to the story, to the author as the creator.
-Profiles and characteristics of characters in fiction are known and become alive in the words that are written going forward.
-Memory and Visual prompts are in play—color coding, use of sticky notes and dilemmas and conflicts are foreseen by the author.
The Outer Author’s job is to engage in the shout-out...both pre-availability and once published.
-Adding to contacts and in social media platforms becomes instrumental in book marketing.
-Strategizing and implementing a book marketing campaign that comes in waves, not just a one-time event.
-Reaching out to book clubs, speaking opportunities, and podcasts to build influence.
Join in ... you will learn a lot!
If you don’t want you and your book to be ignored, then the AuthorU-Your Guide to Book Publishing podcast is for you. Host Judith Briles has lots to share in this episode of the AuthorU-Your Guide to Book Publishing podcast.
