Writing Wednesday/Staying Motivated…
Writing Wednesday
Wednesday is the day I share what I’ve learned on my journey from writing, publication, marketing; and doing it all again, and again. The kind of information I wish someone shared with me back when.
Staying MotivatedSummer is coming and while its my favorite season I also dread how unproductive I become when it comes to my writing. Spending time at the beach helps, it’s my favorite place to write but its also my favorite place to rest and daydream. This summer is going to be different; I have deadlines! Three big ones. What I need is a plan and a few extra doses of motivation.

Just when you thought writing the book was the hard part you were told you had to write a synopsis, then an outline, a proposal and the hardest of all a query letter. You finish all of those and breathe a big sigh of release only to find out you need to write a marketing plan.
There are three types of marketing and your plan should include all of them. Your chances of success increase when your advertising, public relations and promotions work together.Posted in Doreen McGettigan, News, Realize Your Writing Dreams, They Say Everyone Has A Story, Writers Platform Building Campaign Challenge, Writing Wednesday | Tags: #amwriting, #AuthorConsultant, #BookCoach, #bookmarketing, #doreenmcgettigan, #PressReleases, #SupportingAuthors, #WritingCommunity, #WritingPressReleases, #WritingWednesday, Marketing | 4 Comments »
Writing Wednesday; Let’s Talk about Book Proposals…
Wednesday is the day I share what I’ve learned on my journey from writing, publication, marketing; and doing it all again, and again. The kind of information I wish someone shared with me back when.
Let’s Talk About Book ProposalsI’ve always been a planner, so it makes perfect sense I’d be a plotter when it comes to writing. One of our local libraries hosted a panel of literary agents a few weeks ago. I was surprised to hear them say they are now requesting book proposals for fiction and nonfiction books.
Writing Wednesday, the Insecure Writers Support Group & Oddly Suited…
I’d be perfectly happy to stay curled up in my comfy writerly world but unfortunately if I want people to read what I write I need to let them know I’ve written something. Does the thought of public speaking terrify you? The secret to a winning speaking experience is being prepared and practiced. Today’s Writing Wednesday tips are on preparing your talk.

Lets Talk Public Speaking/ Writing Wednesday
Writing Wednesday
Wednesday is the day I share what I’ve learned on my journey from writing, publication, marketing; and doing it all again, and again. The kind of information I wish someone shared with me when I started.
Let’s Talk Public Speaking Part 2 of 3
Have you ever stumbled for words when someone asks you what you do, what do you blog about, what is your book about? I have and it always leaves me feeling so unprofessional.

Let’s Talk about Public Speaking, Part 1 of 3
Does that statement take your breath away and leave you wanting to run back into your quiet, safe writing cave? I’m sorry but once the writing is finished, if you want someone to read the book you’re going to have to talk about it. My suggestion is to work on conquering your fear of public speaking as you write your book. Start slow.

Writing Wednesday and Health Tips for Writers…
Let’s face it we writers spend a lot of time sitting and spending too much time sitting isn’t healthy. It puts us at risk for heart disease, kidney disease, diabetes, circulation issues, vein problems, back; joint and muscle pain and more. As a writer I’ve experienced and deal with several of these conditions. It’s time for me to be a healthier writer and I’m hoping you’ll join me. We’re always better together!
Writing Wednesday & The Insecure Writers Support Group…
Writers can freely express their doubts and concerns without fear of appearing foolish or weak. Those who have been through the fire are willing to help and guidance. It’s a haven for insecure writers of all kinds!
