Stuff You Never Get To...

It looks like we’re going to be at home more and more over the next few weeks because of quarantines, self-quarantines, and social distancing. It’s the perfect time to get to work on some of your writing tasks that have been languishing. Here are some ideas…

  1. Update your website. Make sure that all your links work and that your content is current.

  2. Revise your author biography.

  3. Work on book club questions for your novels and post them.

  4. Make sure you have a summary/synopsis of all your works.

  5. Put together a press kit for your publicity.

  6. Work on blog posts for the future. It’s always nice to have a stockpile.

  7. Check out your biographies on your social media sites and make sure they’re current (e.g. Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Pinterest, Goodreads, BookBub, Amazon, etc.) Don’t forget the ones that you don’t visit that often.

  8. Work on your next newsletter.

  9. Create a marketing campaign. Work on all the scheduling and promotions.

  10. And don’t forget to write your next story, novella, or novel.

I hope you and yours are safe. And if we can’t visit in person, let’s keep up with each other on social media.
