Good Authoring Day to YOU               

TOMORROW is the last day to NOMINATE a favorite author to the Colorado Authors’ Hall of Fame. Have you?

Loved my birthday weekend—the fun online with friends globally, sharing a favorite a friend in a restaurant I haven’t been to in 9 months and celebrating the breadth of #1s that my book When God Says NO—Revealing the YES When Adversity and Loss Are Present earned on Amazon over the long weekend.  

Book Marketing Unplugged Online rolled yesterday. Today is Day 2—love playing with all the tools we authors can use to enhance our influence and build followings. And of course, sell books. Next month is Social Media. All details here: https://thebookshepherd.com/online-book-marketing-on-february.html

My two bits for this last Saturday morning of the month.

 

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, then it opens up to “catch up” and “asks”. Become a subscriber so you can get
