Writer Platform-Building Campaign

Rachael Harrie is hosting a cool campaign for writers to help build their online platform.   I love this concept but not just for the platform-building, but for the networking with other writers.

Most of the people that signed up are writers/bloggers looking for a way to connect and support each other in their endeavors.   Rachel references this campaign as a “pay it forward” concept which is awesome.   It’s not easy coordinating these types of online efforts so my hat’s off to her.  While I muddle my way through this campaign, I wanted to take a brief moment to inform my followers, in case they want to join in on the fun.   It’s not terribly complex, but in order to sign up, you need to read Rachel’s post on how to get started.   Click here for more details.  Sign up deadline is 8/31/2001. 
There’s lots of planned activities, and I hope to have the time to join in on all the fun.   Either way, I’m sure I’ll learn a thing or two.  Questions?  Comment below and I’ll see if I can help or find the answers on Rachel’s blog.

Happy Campaigning!

    Hi, Mina :
    It was great of you to visit and follow and chat. Isn't it nicer when visitors stay for just a minute to give you feedback on your hard-written post?

    As you can tell from my book trailers (Didn't Wendy Tyler Ryan do fantastic with them?), I write fantasy and urban fantasy.

    My next book will be YA urban fantasy. What book are you working on? Roland

    @Megan - Hi! Thanks for stopping by. & Thanks for following. :)

    @Madeline - I'm super excited to meet fellow writers. I think we're all so busy, we barely have enough time.

    @Cheri - Great to meet you as well. I'm so impressed with all blogs I've visited so far. :)

    @Carrie - Same here. Follower now too. :)

    @Elizabeth - Loved your post when I visited earlier today. I know it will be fun. Nothing to lose anyway.

    @Roland - Hi! Thanks for your message. I did see the videos. They were amazing - not an easy task either. I'm in the process of editing my YA novel that I believe I've spent entirely too much time on. *sigh*

    @Leigh - Thanks for stopping by. I'm so happy to make a connection with everyone. :)
