I think it can be a very positive, beneficial thing to network before a book deal. You end up getting so much more than sales out of it!

I think that is a really big help for a platform. I'm much more likely to come back to blogs where I know what I'm going to get, versus blogs that (like mine, ha ha) that just meander around anything writing-related. I do have a "theme" - analyzing book for their writing techniques - but I've noticed that those posts are my least popular. Probably because unless I pick a super popular book, chances are only a few of my readers will have read it and can relate to it.Margo Berendsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03476308235642890474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6734108232999147338.post-66871283730470734562010-12-16T09:35:45.604-08:002010-12-16T09:35:45.604-08:00Laura - Thanks!
