You can't turn around without being told you need to be on social media, that it's the best place to connect with your readers and potential readers! But just how do you get that all important following! After all, there are millions of users on each platform so that makes it harder to be found in the sea of voices. We break down our tips for doing just that. "How Do You Build A Following On Social Media?"
It's Wednesday, so that means time for our weekly writing podcast! Today's episode was suggested by listener Marty Vee. Apologies for taking so long before we got to this topic. Marty's question was: "What Do You Do When You Hit A Roadblock In Your Novel?"
Let's start the year off strong and for me that means making goals. Goals should move you forward. You start with a few yearly goals, then break them down over the months to make it easier to manage. January is the perfect time to consider your Yearly Goals (which I did in last week's post). From there, I've created my first set of monthly goals for the year.
As we say goodbye to 2020, and welcome 2021 with open arms, we use this time to look ahead for what we want from this brand-spanking new year! And with that in mind, we ask: "What Are Your Goals For 2021?"
As I push 2020 out the door with its bags packed, I welcome 2021 with a hopeful wariness. The last few years have been pretty poor but I am just going to keep pushing forward, whatever this year decides to throw at me. So this post is about the areas I want to focus on this year. (My monthly goals post has been shunted to next Friday).
This is the last podcast episode of 2020 and it's a nice round number! (seriously, we never planned it like that which makes it all the more awesome!) We decided that since this was our 40th episode and the last one of the year, that we'd share some of our bloopers! I do say some because we made SO many! Big thanks to my partner in crime, Rachel who not only suggested this episode but them sorted all the bloopers herself as I was dealing with family/house stuff. She did a great job!! Without further ado, we give you: "2020 Bloopers"
With Christmas just around the corner we decided to make this episode a little different. We're ditched the writerly questions and are doing: Christmas Tag Edition
It's finally the end of 2020 and I think most of us can't wait to see the back of this dumpster fire of a year! Looking back over my blog, I was surprised how frustrated I was with 2019 and how happy I was when THAT year was over. I guess 2020 made us all realise how bad a year truly could be!
Today on The Merry Writer Podcast, we are doing another marketing episode and are asking the question: "Are You a Marketing Newbie or a Marketing Newbie?"
Let's be honest, we all have a favourite part to write when drafting our stories. Whether that's the dialogue, decorative description, fight scenes etc, there is something that we get excited to write. So today, we are asking the question: "What Is Your Favourite Part To Write?"
