If these are similar to points recommended for small businesses, hopefully that means we're on the right track ;) I have never done an author event before, so I can't speak from experience, but for me personally I think they would be fun. But definitely not as manageable and consistent as all the awesome and fun online possibilities.

Guest blogging, marketing through social media, etc. is all essential. For me, author appearances make me miserable so I've chosen to do a lot of work online. I'll do the events because it's a part of it, but you'll never see me spending every weekend sitting at book fairs or schlepping around to bookstores.Stephanie Farishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461865229341760836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554125151787997248.post-80534652818798568972014-09-05T17:11:15.284-07:002014-09-05T17:11:15.284-07:00Oh, I love how you have all those submission oppor...Oh, I love how you have all those submission opportunities!

My hobbies are sewing and knitting (plus reading - so I've gotten into doing book reviews now and then). Will have to think how to incorporate those!noelle44https://www.blogger.com/profile/00333648063604618407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554125151787997248.post-2886048894077442492014-09-02T14:42:43.358-07:002014-09-02T14:42:43.358-07:00Exactly :) Fun and productive.
