Introducing "Find Your Readers," an online summit running from tomorrow Friday through Monday, August 4th to 7th.
When my friend Daniel David Wallace created this event, he had one goal:
= to create an online summit all about author marketing, audience building, and publishing which connected these activities to the writer’s craft.
In other words, he didn’t want to encourage the feeling that your writing and your marketing should be two separate things.
One ruled by the heart and the intuition, the other by the head and the calculator.
I am so with him!
He thought such a view was impoverishing to writers.
On the one hand, it made a lot of writers avoid marketing, feeling like it was something tiresome, alienating, unsafe, and superficial.
And on the other, it suggested that the art itself didn’t matter that much, that building an audience was a bit like tricking people, just a matter of buying repetitive ads or posting catchy images on social media.
Daniel's goal for the event was to weave together concepts and techniques over the twenty + presentations. This year, he succeeded at his goal better than he could have expected.
For example...
you'll learn about author newsletters and reader magnets in Sandra Beckwith's talk;
in Chad R. Allen's session, you'll see how to use your author newsletter and reader magnets as part of pitching yourself to appear on a podcast.
you'll learn about understanding how readers connect to your writing voice in Sue Brown Moore's presentation;
in Mary Adkin's talk, you'll learn how reading your own work like a reader makes you a better editor.
you'll hear from Lara Ferrari how to write a compelling social media caption;
you'll watch as Cameron Clarkson shows us how to use AI tools to rapidly create raw material for our social media posts.
In the first few hours of the summit, it will feel like you are learning a series of distinct techniques (how to edit an agent query letter, how to plan out an author newsletter, how to be more confident on social media).
But by the end of the event, it will all be connecting together, like the clues of a mystery novel finally forming one picture.
So sign u
By registering with a free pass, you can watch all 20+ live sessions over the four-day event.
It's an incredible opportunity to gain valuable insights and practical tips from experts in the field.
However, I highly recommend considering the paid ticket option.
That pricing goes up tomorrow, the first day of the event.
It's incredibly affordable, and trust me, the value it brings is worth every penny.
With a paid pass, you'll have access to the event's replays and transcripts, allowing you to revisit the sessions whenever you need a refresher.
Even better, pass buyers will receive a bundle of exclusive bonuses from the speakers, which often cost more than the pass itself.
These bonuses include mini-courses, helpful PDF guides, discounts, and additional mini-lessons—all valuable resources to further enhance your writing skills.
