I've spent the last few weeks in the drafting process of my personal essays for my honors thesis and eBook. However, as Dr. Burton as advised me, I need to continue working on connecting. The cool thing about my eBook is that I can promote it before it is even finished.So I've done a lot of general connecting, exploring the ins and outs in India, but it is time to start targeting people who might be interested in my essays.
What I have done so far:
- Commented on others blogs
- Made friends
- Joined Twitter (here is my profile link)
- Started sharing my writing with my family
- Created a writing group with 8 awesome writing friends to workshop and hold discussions
- Joined nanowrimo. This is a site that gets you to challenge your writing goals to celebrate national writing month in November. There is no way I will hit 50,000 words, but I am hoping to connect with other writers and get to know the students in my novel writing class better.
- Participated in an online chat with some legit writers. I'm going to join in again this coming Thursday.
What I Want to Do Next:
- Comment more on other peoples blogs and find new blogs
- Start looking into the author section of goodreads.com and try to connect with people who have similar interests.
- Look at other writers blogs and follow forums on self publishing
- Keep it coming! Both drafts and blog updates.
- Review the eBook Writing about Literature in the Digital Age and start to think about how to format my own eBook
