No, this isn't this week's Weekly Something, but I felt the need to take over an entire blog post anyways!
Isn't it amazing, this adventure we are all on? We are given so many ways to express and challenge ourselves.
And often times, if we are really lucky, we could almost be a cartoon character, walking along an empty street with a huge, shinning light bulb over our heads.
I just had one of those moments.
An, "Oh right". "Of of course!" "Ah, duh!" "Ding! DING!".
I think authors often make the mistake of promoting only in their niche (gods, I really wanted to use the word "breeds" but that kind of reads as being offensive).
Forgetting sometimes that: plumbers, stay-at-home-moms (Superwomen), interior designers, teachers, customer service reps, roofers, deep-sea-divers and conductors exist.
People are rather versitalize, for good or ill. Which means, they tend to have various interests. I bet some of the above grouped folks even pick up a book or two.
Actually, I know they do.
Authors Promoting Authors has plumbers, stay-at-home-moms (Superwomen), interior designers, teachers, customer service reps, roofers, deep-sea-divers and conductors as readers.
They read this blog. Some of them have been doing so from the very beginning.
I bet, readers, also have a thing or two to contribute. Thoughts on their mind they'd like to share with the world.
I bet, some of them, would just love to be OUR GUEST!
The Our Guest Feature is just not exclusive to authors. You don't need to be a author or a writer. If you feel you have something our versatile audience would enjoy or something you'd like to share, please feel free to participate in this feature.
Send the guest-blog to : apasuggestionsATgmail.com (please tell you'd like to be Our Guest), along with a bio and title of the article (guest post).
As long as it is not offensive or violent, I will gladly post it.
I think this could be really interesting and allow interaction between readers and writers.
This was my lightbulb moment of the night.
This is so cool.
ReplyDeleteIt also gives us very novice writers a chance to contribute.
Looking forward to it!

Great idea! I like it!
ReplyDeleteI like the idea. Perhaps readers would post articles on waht makes them pick up a book and read it, or even what they don't like about the art of writing, publishing and even reading.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work, Tina-Sue!
