It’s full of great articles about writing and publishing like Gianmaria Fanchini’s post […] February 9th, 2012 | Tags: Bay Area editors, Berkeley editors, Constance Hale, indie publishing, Meghan Ward, Publishing, San Francisco editors, Sarah Baker, Self-Publishing, Social Media classes, Syn and Syntax, Writerland, Writing | Category: Books, Marketing, Publishing, Self-Publishing, Social Media, The Author Platform, Writing | 18 comments - (Comments are closed) 1. Get over your fear of self-promotion. Just do it. Now. Done? Good. I get an email newsletter from professional coach Martha Borst every week. It has her photo at the top and an image of her book cover on the side. I don’t see that and think, “Oh God, there goes Martha promoting herself […] January 31st, 2012 | Tags: author blogs, author platform, author websites, Bay Area editors, Berkeley editors, blogging, Facebook, Meghan Ward, personal brand, San Francisco editors, Social Media, Social Media classes, social networking, Twitter, Writerland | Category: Marketing, Publishing, Social Media, The Author Platform, Writing | 23 comments - (Comments are closed) My life is insane this week. In addition to training for a half-marathon, editing two books, and touring every kindergarten in California, I’ve been left to take care of two snot-nosed kids (literally, there are balls of snotty toilet paper all over the house) alone while my husband is out of town on a business […] January 18th, 2012 | Tags: Amazon, Bay Area editors, Berkeley editors, Books, bookstores, independent bookstores, iPhone, Meghan Ward, Publishing, San Francisco editors, Social Media classes, Writerland | Category: Books, Reading, Videos | 14 comments - (Comments are closed) It’s been my intention for some time now to expand this blog to write about other topics, and to post more frequently. I haven’t done that because, frankly, I don’t have the time. Blogging once a week has been perfect for me. It’s manageable, and with two- and three-year-old children, I need something manageable in […] November 22nd, 2011 | Tags: author platform, Bay Area editors, Meghan Ward, personal brand, Publishing, Social Media, Social Media classes, social network, Writerland, Writing | Category: Marketing, Publishing, Social Media, The Author Platform, Writing | 30 comments - (Comments are closed) I was a Klout junkie. The first thing I did when I woke up in the morning was reach for my iPad and check my Klout score to see if it had gone up a point since the previous night (scores apparently change in the middle of the night). I’m a casual gamer (Settlers of […] November 8th, 2011 | Tags: Bay Area editors, Blogger, blogging, blogs, Facebook, Google, Klout, Linked In, Meghan Ward, publising, Social Media, Social Media classes, social media influence scores, social networking, Sprout Social, Tumblr, Twitter, Wordpress, Writerland, Writing | Category: Marketing, Social Media, The Author Platform, Writing | 40 comments - (Comments are closed) Thank you so much to the 105 authors who took the author advance survey! Here are the results (now with author comments added below): Average and Median of All Advances Five people reported multi-book deals (four two-book deals and one four-book deal), which skewed the results a bit.
