Author Platform Basics (& What Social Media Platforms to Use)

Author platform basics! What are they? Do you need one? What social media is a MUST DO vs. a maybe? In this video I'll tell you what you need, when you should do it, and my thoughts on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Tumblr, Pinterest, Snapchat and YouTube!

This overview will help authors thinking about how to market themselves and their books by giving you a place to start. While my channel is geared towards traditional publication and especially YA, this video offers pretty universal tips about social media platforms for authors and author websites.

There is A LOT MORE to author marketing and book marketing of course! I'll be uploading a series of videos this month on the topic, and many more in the future (my day job is marketing!).
