Spending the Week Working on The Author Roadmap

This past weekend, DiAnn Mills and I were on faculty for Weekend with the Writers. Since it was held here in Greenville, SC, she and I are spending this week together, finishing up our book, The Author Roadmap.


We’re so excited about how it’s shaping up and all the wonderful things we’ll be able to share with you. 

We’ve been mining our own writing journeys, looking for things that would have helped us along the way.

Here are just a few extras you can expect when the book comes out:
  • A clear guide to take you one step at a time as you navigate the social media and marketing aspect of being an author.
  • Spreadsheets and timelines so you not only know what to do, but when to do it.
  • Extra links within the book that lead to videos and screencasts to help everyone actually see what we’re talking about.

We’ve been brainstorming, taking pictures, and burning up our keyboards trying to make this a resource that will help you accomplish your writing dreams.
