Whether you write fiction or nonfiction, a blog can be a fun writing endeavor that also helps you build platform, gain authority, get published, and promote your books. Despite these facts, many writers balk at the idea of starting and maintaining a blog. Others begin blogging but have no idea how to do so effectively.
If you’d like to learn why and how to blog—and to do so successfully—join two long-time bloggers and published authors—Nina Amir and Nita Sweeney—for a Virtual Lunch ‘N Learn for the Women’s National Book Association – San Francisco Chapter, on September 30 at 12pm PT.

- The primary reasons writer should become bloggers
- Strategies for successful author blogs
- What topics to blog about
- How to gain expert status as a blogger
- Tips on sharing posts, blogging consistently, best practices, and more
