]]> I haven’t blogged on the NEXT LEVEL marketing blog in awhile. A few months ago, I wanted to start a series about the pros and cons of certain social networks.  Well, I found myself knee deep in coordinating blog tours, so my writing (ideas, outlines, etc) have been on hold. I decided to jump start the blog again by answering a popular question about Facebook. Like many others, this social network has become my favorite place to hang out. It’s definitely the place to be for authors.

This year I took a bit of a break from my manuscripts. I didn’t intend to, but I’ve spent the year mainly writing articles. I enjoy writing nonfiction especially how to types of articles.  My writing craft articles can be found on Urban Christian Fiction Today and marketing articles on Shades of Romance Magazine.

This month, with the launch of the newly redesigned RAWSistaz (Reading and Writing Sistaz), my writing craft articles will be available to a wider audience. A big thanks to Tee C. Royal, founder of the RAWSistaz Literary Group for the opportunity.

I’ve been coordinating quite a few blog tours this summer, but writing is definitely on the horizon. Be on the lookout for more articles and a sneak peek at my characters.

They’re starting to talk again.  Time to get busy with research and storytelling. :)

]]> Writing can be a lonely activity. The loneliness may not necessary end after the book is published. Hours of travel, sitting at book signing tables, setting up booths, and hotel rooms may take a toil on a writer, may even steal some of the joy from the publishing process. With the current economy, authors have to be careful with funds. It’s imperative to include a combination of traditional and online ideas in book marketing plans.

With the Book Buzz 2.0 column, I try to share with you online marketing ideas to help you get your book out there to your readers. I also run a marketing blog, but there is no way I could share with you all the options that are available to you. What makes the Internet such an awesome place is the willingness of so many who don’t mind sharing tips. I’ve found the best teachers when it comes to marketing are those who are veterans or who have a creative spirit when it comes to book promotion.

]]> Some days you wrote feverishly, other days you stared at a blank page. After much procrastination and then finally a stroke of genius, you finished the story that’s haunted you months, maybe even years. You probably didn’t know at the time completing the manuscript was only the beginning. The journey to “getting the call” can be heart wrenching.

You may be one of the writers who receives the call not long after the submission process. Or you can be the one of thousands of writers (including some very famous published authors) who received one rejection letter after another. Either way, when you get the call, it will be joyous time. As you begin to settle back down to earth, don’t get caught up in the myth.
