Tips For Aspiring Authors:
Write daily. Write constantly
Rome wasn’t built in a day and a book needs time to finish. There is also that dreaded drafting and re-drafting of your manuscript. No matter how daunting writing your book may be, you just need to write constantly to get to the final period.
Be open to the world around you.
Writers are usually anti-social in nature. We spend long hours facing our computer screen, shut away from society. But most of the time, our writing is drawn from our experiences. Talk to people, travel and get inspired.
Have a marketing plan.
It doesn’t matter if you are self-publishing or have a publisher. You need a marketing plan. Use the marketing tools available to you, whether they be social media, conducting book tours or doing some form of publicity blitz. Authors need to be proactive in marketing their books.
Don’t give up.
Even if you don’t see any returns after publishing your book, it doesn’t mean you need to throw in the towel. Review your book publishing experience and see what could be done better. If you really feel that being an author is what you have been called to do, then don’t give up. Being an author is an upward climb. Try again, start working on your next book, build your fan base and you will reach the top of the mountain someday.
