To succeed as a writer you need two things: to write and to cultivate an author brand. Especially for writers who plan to write a book, apply for a writing job or in other ways bring their talent to market - and even for emerging writers - it is never too early to understand positioning and brand. In today’s digital world, agents and publishers look for authors with a known brand, a digital presence, and a clear style.
This course is taught by Lynne Golodner, who knows well the worlds of writing and marketing - she has had 8 books published and written thousands of articles, worked as a journalist and for the last 15 years, run a marketing company. Lynne’s work has appeared in Saveur, Poets & Writers, Seventeen, Better Homes and Gardens, Parenting, Parents, Good Housekeeping, HOME, the Chicago Tribune, the Detroit Free Press, and more - AND, she has helped countless writers and clients develop their brand and achieve exposure locally, nationally and globally.
In this course, we'll examine the art of branding, how to know your writer style and voice, and how to create a plan for your writing that you will be eager to enact.
During the seminar participants will do some free-writing to get clear on the type of branding that is best for them!
