My book writing journey after the first week…

I’ve joined several social media sites this past week, as I’ve wanted to try them all as part of my marketing plan. Everyone said I should do this, and I have been doing my best to learn how to maneuver around them all. I’ve decided some are more useful than others. I’ve  had a great time sharing my book on Facebook and have sold several copies to friends. I’ve pinned on Pinterest but don’t really know how to get my book visible. I’ve tried  Twitter, but don’t seem to get it yet. I think I have learned more from Linkedin than any other. There are so many people that I’ve connected with that have similar stories and questions. Today, an author was wondering if it would be worth while to publish his book as an ebook. I had also looked into doing this and spent hours on Createspace and finally gave up. A comment from a member of a group of children’s authors that I was linked to had great words of advice. He said picture books are very hard to do as ebooks. He’d had extensive experience with all kinds of ebooks and had tried to work with pictures and more or less said to forget about it.

So I have!

For now!
