Good Authoring Day to YOU …
… And Happy Saturday to you!
It’s Christmas Eve around the world. In my household, the family gathers for gift exchanging, good eats and catchup. With my grandson in his first year of college, I’m all ears to have encounters and discoveries … all starting this afternoon.
Jazzed to learn that the local B&N is ordering in my new book, The Secret Journey co-authored with Brian Barnes. It’s historical fiction with a twist … get yours: bit.ly/TheSecretJourney
Wishing you all a wonderful day.
Many have asked when I will offer my Amazon Bestseller Campaign four-week workshop. The first dates are set: February 8, 15, 22, March 1. You can register early on my website under the Experiences tab.
It’s Caturday … ahh … How’s your platform building doing … this is the ideal time of the year to assess what you’ve done; what needs to be pumped up; and create a plan to do it.
That’s me for this Saturday … How about you?… What are you up to? …
Friday mornings are the place to be with other authors! I love the Friday coaching that happens early each Friday AM. I always have a “new tip” for the group that I lead with—a “show and tell how to do ‘it’ … whatever ‘it’ is, then it opens up to “catch up” and “asks.” Become a subscriber so you can get Friday Coaching for only $37 a month for VIP AuthorYOU members, $47 for non-members—limited number of subscribers allowed. We gather viz Zoom at 7 AM. Get on board –it’s fun and informative … and you get all questions answered. We do it via Zoom. This is for any author anywhere! Register- http://bit.ly/JudithCoaching
