Marketing Your Book - Building Your Platform In-Person
In this presentation, cozy mystery author Heather Weidner talks about the key components in an author’s platform, how to get started, and how not to get overwhelmed. These days, authors are expected to promote their books, and it can quickly become time-consuming with all the avenues and options.
Through the years, Heather Weidner has been a cop’s kid, technical writer, editor, college professor, software tester, and IT manager. She writes the Pearly Girls Mysteries, the Delanie Fitzgerald Mysteries, The Jules Keene Glamping Mysteries, and The Mermaid Bay Christmas Shoppe Mysteries. She blogs regularly with the Writers Who Kill.
Her short stories appear in a variety of anthologies, and she has non-fiction pieces in Promophobia and The Secret Ingredient: A Mystery Writers’ Cookbook.
Presented in partnership with the Chesapeake Bay Writers Club.
