Face The Book TV #26: Building an Effective Author Platform

This episode of Face The Book TV focuses on the core elements of an author platform - website, mailing list, social media - in that order. You can also leverage assets that you may already have - your expertise, your friends & colleagues, and to some extent, your social media. 

With mindful, regular cultivation, a well built-out author platform can set you up for booming book sales by the time your publication date rolls around. You can start building your platform any time, but doing it before you even start writing is highly recommended.
