Turning Readers into Fans: Community Building for Authors

9 August 2024 2:30 pm

This workshop is all about mastering the art of building vibrant communities for readers. Whether it’s the magic of Facebook groups, the engagement power of Substack, or the project buzz of Kickstarter, we’ll explore a range of community-building platforms which can help transform your readers into lifelong fans. We’ll also cover strategies to help you engage with the author community to build that fanbase, whether that be through blurb exchanges or collaborative marketing ventures. As author Kevin Kelly states, all you need are 1000 ‘true fans’ to sustain a successful author career. So let’s get your fanbase up and running.
