For many writers, blogging is seen as a necessary evil to maintain an online presence and nothing more. But blogging can also be a fabulous connecting point between you and the world. A robust blog can compel people to follow you and share your words with others. That’s the key – making what you blog about and how you blog accessible and addictive to your followers. Blogs also serve as vehicles to connect other authors together, promote books, and hone your writing craft. Like novels, blogs must be tailored in content and purpose and not just jumbled, random thoughts from writers. This webinar will cover the technicalities of blogging and the nuances of building a blog following with exceptional content.
