In a world where authors must do their own promotion, the good news is that you have many tactics available. Even if you avoid social media and no matter how much support your publisher provides, there are ways that authors can raise their profile and find readers. Leslie-Ann Murray moderates a panel of authors who have taken various approaches to publicizing their books and connecting with audiences.
If you could use advice about how to approach social media or need help getting traction with reviews and interviews, join us for this encouraging talk about how writers can actively promote themselves and their works throughout the literary world, before and after a book’s publication. The session will offer practical strategies to:
Secure book reviews and interviews (even with smaller, emerging platforms)
Prepare for interviews and confidently own their narrative.
Elevate their social media presence in authentic, sustainable ways.
Connect with audiences through book clubs, newsletters, and literary communities.
A Q&A will follow the presentation; you can pre-submit a question when registering for the event. A recording will be made available for those who cannot attend live.
