A must-read book for all writers and bloggers!
This book is such an excellent book to have in your writing toolbox!
I don’t write books, but I am a blogger and pretty much have just learned how to blog on the fly. I’ve always loved writing and I’m a millennial so I have the odd desire to constantly share and post EVERYTHING LOL!! I have really enjoyed blogging over the past couple years!! It started as a hobby and has turned into so much more!! I know there was still a lot that I was missing with my blogging and this book has helped fill in some of those holes. There is so much I learned from this book that I am so excited to start practicing and incorporating into my blogging. There is always room for learning and whether you are a writer or a blogger and have been for years, this book can still help you!
One thing I loved about this book is that it’s not just for novices – there is so much in this book that there’s something even for the more experienced writers and well, everyone in-between!
This book has a stronger focus on the Twitter and Facebook worlds. However, in addition, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Instagram, Tumblr, and Goodreads are addressed.
There is so much detail and step by step guides that make it so easy to follow. Which brings me to the second thing I loved about this book. There are photos in this book that show step by step instructions and examples of what you are working on building towards.
This book also teaches you how to measure and monitor your social media stats so you can interpret the data and work towards increasing your following.
This book will help you understand and utilize social media to your advantage!
Pretty much EVERYONE is on social media these days – so if you want to get your book noticed THIS book will help you get it out there!
I would absolutely recommend this book and this author as the book is very helpful and an important tool that will help you make the most out of your writings! This author has written some similar books that I will also definitely be checking out!

Loved love loved this book! Probably partially because I read it at the perfect time in my writing journey. (Time to get my social media up to speed before my debut novel is released.) I was only about 3 chapters in and I already learned so much about Facebook of which I have been a user for 8-10 years. I think I highlighted 1/4 of the sentences in the book and now it will take me months to go through and implement everything I learned. Covered most every outlet useful for writers and then some. Who knew Pintrest could be a great place for fiction writers? But also, the book was written in an easy to follow format with lots of screen shots and simple instructions. The mantra of the book wasn’t how to get the most followers, but how to use each social media outlet to connect with other people because that is what social media is meant to be.
