Stop feeling
invisible and start attracting the attention you deserve.
Have you been writing for years, but feel like
no one notices? Have you published your stories, only to gain a handful of
readers? Do your marketing efforts feel like shouting into a void?
Veteran writer and motivational coach Colleen M.
Story helps you break the spell of invisibility to reveal the author platform
that will finally draw readers your way.
There are more books out there than ever before,
and readers have many other things vying for their attention. A writer can feel
like a needle in a haystack, and throwing money at the problem rarely helps.
What does work is creating a platform that stands out, but in a sea of a
million platforms, how is one to do that?
"Writer Get Noticed!" takes a new
approach, dispelling the notion that fixing your writing flaws and expanding
your social media reach will get you the readers you deserve. Instead, discover
a myriad of strengths you didn’t know you had, then use them to find your
author theme, power up your platform, and create a new author business
blueprint, all while gaining insight into what sets you apart as a writer and
creative artist.
Writers need readers to achieve their highest
potential. Find your way to stand out, and let it lead you to the writing
career that fulfills all your expectations and more.
My Review: I'm excited to do another Colleen tour!
These books are tricky to review, as this is something that differs to each reader in MANY ways. Nonetheless, I always learn and take away something from her books that truly do help and work! Awesome right! (no, just me?) (:
Anywho... After reading this, I could see why I got mixed reactions going on with my writing/stories. Why some of them work out better than others and how I can use those little things to help boost my not so great posts. What I thought and went about in marketing ways has changed. The more I went into the book, the more I learned. The more my eyes opened in order to make my work the best it can be!
Does this book work/help? Yes! It does, at least for me. I've found I can relate and take way a lot of things in Colleen's books. Is it an easy overnight changer of life? Not exactly. You may see changes happen soon or it may take a while. In the end it all depends on you and the time you wish to spend in making your dreams come true.
Overall, it's
another hit with Colleen. I've certainly seen changes in my writing style,
improvements on using my strengths to work for me. Marketing tweaks. All worth
it!
