My First Blog Entry

1/14/2016

2 Comments

 
​Welcome to my first blog entry. This week I submitted my novel, Dickensen Academy, to a small group of agents. While I wait to hear back, I finally have time to get to some of the other items on my “Writing – To Do” list, as well as a few personal things around my house that have gone by the wayside while I have been deep in the throes of editing my book. Launching a blog was at the top of my list.
 
I plan to primarily blog advice about writing. I have been writing my first book since late 2014. Although it is not yet published—fingers crossed—I have learned a lot this past year. I believe this information would be beneficial to other new authors, and some posts may be helpful for established authors who are looking to integrate new ideas or best practices into their writing careers. I expect that in the coming months, as I work toward getting my book published that I will learn a lot more.
 
I still need to figure out the best way to communicate my posts. In my experience reading blogs, I find email notification the most helpful. However, Weebly doesn’t recommend it, so they doesn’t provide an easy option to do it on this website. But I plan to do something with Facebook, Twitter, or a newsletter soon. Stay tuned.   
 
Thank you for reading my first post. I hope over the coming weeks and months, you will find many helpful posts here.

Good luck with the new endeavors, Christine. I saw your test tweet, so Twitter is a good way to communicate. I put out tweets and Facebook posts encouraging people to "subscribe" to my website. I have Weebly also, and I started a monthly newsletter with the email addresses from the subscriber list. That is going well. :)

Geralyn - Thanks so much for the suggestions. I am glad Weebly is working well for you. I need to figure out how to do a newsletter next but as you can tell, I'm playing around a lot with this site now. I am going to check out your website and see how you do it.
