What to Post on Social Media While Book is in Production
I was running a writers workshop for aspiring book authors and one asked, “My book is in the illustration phase. What do I post meanwhile? I don’t even have a cover yet? “
This took me to the ONE thing we all need to remember as authors. It’s never too early to promote your book across social media.
So, what do you tell your followers? How do you build more?
Here are some ideas for you to build on — —
Make a few graphics
Make some tips / quote graphics around your topic. The person in question told me their story. It was related to teaching kids organization, social skills, and friendship. Great topics to make some graphics in your book style / font / colors on.
Opinions galore
Ask questions relating to your book that will create a discussion.
Make a poll around book title, book characters, book names or more.Have illustrations? Ask which version of the illustration they like best!
Followers love feeling like they are a part of your book in some way.
