Resources:
Check out Open Library Free online library!
Substack: Direct to consumer writing. "Substack lets independent writers and podcasters publish directly to their audience and get paid through subscriptions." Grant Faulkner co director of NaNoWrimo highly recommended by Ev. Check it out HERE
Online book tours recommended by Katie. These organizations are great resources for self published authors. Check out R&R Book Tours: "In an age of indie and self-publishing, it can be really hard to introduce your book to the masses. One of the best ways of sharing your book, is by making friends with a book reviewer or two. I should know, I am one. I also happen to know a few (500+), and they would love to read your book. It also doesn’t hurt that we’ve been in business for nearly 6 years and know a thing or two." And Moonlight Book Tours on Facebook
Discussion:
We ranged from discussing eulogies (Michelle is writing one for a family friend) to mistaken identities. Small group but a lively chat.
I hope everyone can make it to our June meeting in person on June 15th at 6 pm at the Swanton Public Library.
