The Writers’ Platform-Building Campaign

by | Aug 30, 2011 | Blog, randomness | 13 comments

As the world turns more and more toward social media, writers struggle to find a way to connect with people and get the word out about their latest projects, to meet others who are like us and move forward in the quickly shifting landscape of publishing. Lucky for us, there are people like Rachel Harrie, who is organizing a campaign for writers to network and make new friends–and hopefully to have some fun along the way. Over the next couple of months I’m going to join in (along with over four-hundred others, so far).

There’s still time to join. The sign-up list closes tomorrow, the 31st at midnight EST and things are already rolling along, so hurry while there’s still time. Pop by Rachel’s blog to learn more.

    Hi Heather! Thanks for stopping by today. I joined a few groups, too, so hopefully, I'll keep everyone straight…Oy!
    I can't wait for the challenges. This is my first time with the Campaign, so I'm not sure what to expect. So far, everyone has been so friendly and welcoming. It's terrific.
    Anyway, it's great to meet you and check out your blog page. Hope to see you again. ~ Nadja

    Hello, I came over to see what you had written for the first campaign challenge but I can't find it. Am I looking in the wrong place?
