Would you like to see your posts
about life, food, travel, or parenting
turned into a book?
That’s exactly what happened to blogger Kerri Sackville. In this
session, Kerri reveals the exact steps she took to turn her random
musings into a loyal following of blog readers.
In 2009 Kerri began blogging at Life and Other Crises. This caught the attention of major publisher Random House and the result is the best-selling book When My Husband Does the Dishes: A Memoir of Marriage and Motherhood, released in 2011. Her second book, The Little Book of Anxiety, was released in April 2012.
Whether you love writing about wine, sport, business, craft or your
unique take on life, your blog could be the start of your writing
career.
In this session, Kerri reveals:
The steps she took to build a fan base for her blog Life and
Other Crises
How she built her profile online
Why you need to contribute to other blogs (and how to do this)
Strategies to get noticed by publishers
How to make yourself a “marketable” author
The types of blog posts you should aim for
Why you need to become a valuable member of the
blogging community
and much more.
In this two-hour session, you’ll learn what it takes to turn your blog into a book. You’ll leave with a framework on how to build your online profile and turn your random posts into a foundation that may attract your own book contract.
