For years, I’ve written blog posts to help other authors I as learned more on this journey to be a successful author. At some point, I decided to turn most of this into books (with lots more information added than in the original blog posts). Thus I have Non-Fiction @ Ronel the Mythmaker as books and as blog posts. Check out my For Authors page here.

The first was about platform building — a big thing as any author knows. Then it was about writing, getting the time and the ideas to write. Mindfulness is another biggie authors need to worry about. And then there is planning. Not everyone can plan out their day and get everything done when and how they should.

So, playing to my strengths, I compiled these books. And though I have ideas for others, this is where I’m going to leave it for now.

Platform Building

Not sure how to get started on building your author platform? Not sure what an author platform is? Then this is the book for you.

Includes:

• How tos on the various social media networks.
• A list of resources.
• Writing tips.
• Help to define your writing goals and who you are as a writer.
• Help with community building and getting your name on the map.
• Downloadable PDF worksheets and homework to get the most out of the lessons.
• Downloadable, customisable PDF to-do lists to help you keep track of your various platforms and what you have to do every week.

Some parts of the book can be found on the author’s website, but this is a complete, updated version for 2019 and beyond.

The author originally ran a 20 day Basics of Author Online Presence Challenge on Writer to Writers in 2017 – this is the superpower version of that challenge with loads more information and tasks.

By the end of 30 days, you will no longer be invisible online.
