Greeting Keepers!
A lot of us are starting to build platforms now, or at least we plan to very soon. I’ve been platform building longer than most, and I’ve found that the #1 inhibitor of growth is that platform building is easy to forget about.
I thought, why not build a community for accountability and sharing?
(Note: I couldn’t think of a…[Read more]

@notawriter Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet.
Have you read The Count Of Monte Cristo? The Mistborn trillogy? Crime and Punishment? Cry The Beloved Country?
A favorite verse? Aaah! *beads of cold sweat* Well, if I had to pick, I’d probably go with. 2 Corinthians 5:14-15 “For the love of Christ controls us, since we have concluded…[Read more]

No, 150 is not too audacious. It’s not easy, but it’s certainly manageable. You could even aim higher if you wanted to push yourself.
Fyi, if you’re going to market yourself on Pinterest, you’ll have to create a business account. (it’s free and the only major difference from a normal account is that it allows you to run paid ads if you…[Read more]

Daeus replied to the topic I Gotta Get Me Some Writing Books in the forum Non-Fiction 6 years, 11 months ago
@winter-rose The KP resource library has a list of good writing books I would check out.
As for marketing books, I’d recommend Your First 10,000 Readers and The Book Launch Blueprint by Tim Grahl. I think those are probably the most solid marketing books I’ve read. I remember How To Market A Book by Joanna Pen having some good ideas too. You may…[Read more]

@epicaddie2 While the perfectionist in me is wrestling with the fact that my crown should be falling off, I have to say this is really hilarious.

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Heroes in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 11 months ago
@epicaddie2 ooh, good topic. I can think of several different definitions right off the top of my head.
A hero is someone who does the right thing even when no one notices.
A hero is someone who does the right thing even when others condemn him for it.
A hero is someone who is wise enough to see the world clearly and foolish enough to love it…[Read more]

@waterlily Yes! I loved the way they added in the footnotes. And my mom thought the same thing about them walking on the edge of the cliff. 🙂

@mariposa Great topic. I’m looking forward to what other people have to say.
For myself, I haven’t yet built a platform I can really base a business on, but I know that’s mainly my fault for not giving platform building enough attention. I have done a couple things with platform building though, and while some of them did not work, some of them…[Read more]

Okay, all my Wingfeather fans. I hope you all knew about the Wingfeather Saga short film Andrew Peterson and a bunch of other cool people have been working on, because it’s here. And if you didn’t know, well here you go. Enjoy 15 minutes of beauty, art, story, and good music from The Arcadian Wild to check…[Read more]

@Daeus yes. I like that.

@kate-flournoy Ah, well not everybody knows it, obviously. 😂😆
Maybe I should substitute that with a tagline then, like, “take your writing to the next level.”

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic Pinterest in the forum Publishing & Platform 6 years, 11 months ago
@Daeus nope, not crazy. But in my experience you don’t even have to click on the link in the description; if you click on the pin, then click it again, it’ll take you back to the link embedded in it. And I think just about everyone knows that about Pinterest, so you might just end up stating the obvious.

@princesswriter Welcome to the bestistest place on the internet!
What are some of your favorite authors? Are you writing anything at the moment?
See you around!

Daeus replied to the topic Pinterest in the forum Publishing & Platform 6 years, 11 months ago
@kate-flournoy @seekjustice @lifeofkatie So, just making sure I’m not crazy here. My sister showed me around on Pinterest a couple days ago and it seemed like someone had to click on your pin to see your description to click on your link to go to your site.
Therefore, I want people to click on my pin, right?
That’s why I have that call to action…[Read more]
