Hello and welcome to the latest edition of The Write Start podcast.
In this episode, I talk about how the writing industry is hard and getting harder. Writers face lower wages, fewer rights to our work, and laws that affect where and how we work. I also talked about how to use Facebook to make money and what I learned as a contest judge.
I also talked about how important it is to use as many of the tools and resources that are available to help move the needle forward in your career. For me, one of those tools is Facebook. What do you think works for you?
I also talk about how the publishing industry needs to stop focusing on social media numbers when deciding to take on someone’s book. There are other things to consider!
Finally, I share tips from my experience as a judge in a major publishing contest. If you’re looking to submit your work to a contest, these tips might help!
Thank you so much for listening! It’s the right time for The Write Start!
