There are some amazingly awesome links here. I love the "Telling" one. Great advice told so clearly and the tips on using find and replace to seek out where you are telling were so helpful.
ReplyDeleteYuppers, good post, that one was. Some of the best concrete tips on an often elusive issue that I've seen.
DeleteThanks for the links. The first one is a must for anyone considering self-publishing. I particularly like that she openly said, "By Default, No One Cares About Your Book." It's the truth. No one cares, so you've got to give them a reason to care. :)
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Linda. Heartbreaking isn't it? But so true. Nobody cares. A good salesman makes you believe (erroneously or not) that yes, we DO need/want this product. Same goes for potential readers of our books. "This is why you need/want it." That's what marketing is all about.

ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed that link, Diane. It was written to youngster who wanted to write. Good advice for any age, I think.
