Today is the crossover to the final month of the calendar year.
So much to do; lots to think about. For we authors and writers … how has the year been? Did you get the book done? The marketing in place? The results you desired? December is often a “lag month” … playing, partying, social. All of that ties into your book world … and planning … what’s next? Maybe lagging should be a tad less lagging as 2018 looms ahead.
TODAY on Author YOU – Your Guide to Book Publishing, host Dr. Judith Briles and Jackie Lapin share many of the “must have” tools, tips, tricks and strategies that will be used when authors look for speaking gigs.
