Welcome to the third edition of Authorpreneur Magazine. It’ s been an exciting four months and I am humbled by the star quality or our contributing writers. Thank you all for making this magazine the fabulous resource it is.
We have two feature author journeys this month. Jenn J McLeod tells a fascinating story of how she had her NaNoWriMo book published and how she embraced social media‘ platform’ opportunities. Aoife Brennan shares how loosing‘ stuff’ inspired her to just get on with it and write a book.
Hazel Edwards provides some fantasitc advice on how writers can repurpose their written work that didin’ t get published as hoped.
We are welcomed into Nicky Johnston’ s creative space as she tells us how she remodelled her office.
Sophie Masson gives us an inside look at writers festivals and provides some helpful dos and don’ ts.
In her regular Media Cents & Sensibility column, Christina Hamlett explains the value of earned media.
