Our New Page: Check us out and Like Us to Keep Up with All the Freebies

After much thought I have created a FB page for my Freebies for Writer's Blog. The intent has always been to help others (like me) find Free resources that pertain to or assist in being a writer. This includes but is not limited to the latest writing related or promotion related ebooks on promo for free. The FB page is not a replacement of my blog, but will allow me to share articles and posts rel...ated to research and promotion etc. rather than just being a clearinghouse for the free ebooks etc. I hope that you will jot over and like the page. I have scored tons of awesome ebooks over the past few months and I have learned at least one new tip or technique from even the books that weren't that great! https://www.facebook.com/pages/Freebies-For-Writers/327003167340033?sk=wall

Freebies For Writers- Tuesday Finds!!! 1-17-12

Hi,
It's been a little slow on the Freebies for Writers the past week, but WOW over the past few weeks we've scored some fantastic ebooks for our writing business.  Today we have a few ebooks that may raise some eyebrows among some of my more literary endeavored readers/writers.  However, I thought it was important to include these books because in the New Publishing Order, all of us are competing with new "writers" that may have never written before, but feel they have something of interest to share and are looking for quick money.  The reality is ebooks have been around in pdf form for many years and many have made a lot of money selling them on the internet.  We will continue to see this and need to learn that "this" sect of the book producing population may actually have ideas that can help us market our own books. I hope you find a gem today!  Tammie

Get With It! Marketing Your Books in 2012

This post is all about ideas on how you can become a better marketer when it comes to your books and products.  In addition, I'm throwing in some links for other "business/ finance" type books that I believe would be helpful to other writers.

What are your goals for 2012. 
Production is one of mine.  So far I'm off to a good start.  THE COUNTERFEIT was launched Dec. 13th and the first book in the DO IT LIKE A PRO: EASY BALLOON DECORATING FOR THE NON-PROFESSIONAL was launched 1-1-12! (It made two bestsellers lists on Amazon today!) I also have the 2nd book in the DO IT LIKE A PRO series DO IT LIKE A PRO: EASY BALLOON ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE NON-PROFESSIONAL ready to release. 

Please share in the comments section and I hope that you are enjoying the blog. Please share it with your friends.
