It's two and a half weeks later and I'm still typing my notes from the SCBWI conference in LA! Typing them is a great way to review what I've learned. And a reminder of what I still have to follow up on!
I thought that this week I'd share some great links that I picked up at the conference to information on social media for authors. Here goes!
"The Happy Accident: using social media to help create happy accidents" by Greg Pinkus. Go to www.thehappyaccident.net and read tips on facebook and blogging. Then go to http://www.thehappyaccident.net/scbwi-la/ for more links about social media.
"The Writers' Guide to Twitter" by Debbie Ridpath Ohi. Go to http://www.inkygirl.com/a-writers-guide-to-twitter/ to read the basics of twitter and how it can help writers.
For everything you need to know about doing school visits, check out Alexis o'Neill's site at www.SchoolVisitExperts.com.
Get guidelines for doing Virtual Author visits on Bruce Hale's site at http://www.brucehale.com/virtual.htm.
Then check out book trailers for children's books at http://kidlitbooktrailers.ning.com/ and scroll down to some links.
