A potent way to build an audience as an author
This is what, according to a news release from Written Word Media, consider a potent way to build an audience as an author:
If you’re looking to increase your author earnings, it’s important to focus on what your author business will look like in the future and how you can get there.
So, in addition to a solid catalog of books, what do high-earning authors have? A large audience of readers who buy the author’s new titles, buy their other titles, leave reviews, and spread the word to other readers.
