I spoke with Jane Friedman today, and she shared three tips for writers on developing their author platform:
- Know your audience, otherwise it is unlikely if any strategy you try will work.
- Establish your online identity as soon as possible, this way you have time to learn the ropes and find your voice. .
- Don’t launch a new channel or site unless you are committed to being there every day.
