This includes everything from building your website, helping you with blogging and social media, or full-scale publicity campaigns. But I promise to only share things that will be interesting and useful to writers. No linkbait, only quality. Sound fair?

************************************************************

Welcome to Future is Fiction Communications. I offer publicity, social media, mark

eting and writing services. I assist authors, musicians, entrepreneurs, startups and other brilliant people in spreading the word about their projects. Sometimes this is a traditional campaign to the newspapers or radio shows. Sometimes it’s a social media campaign. Sometimes it’s a regional campaign in conjunction with a tour. Or sometimes it’s just some well-crafted copy for a web site. Every client is unique, so every campaign is uniquely crafted to target the client’s skills and potential audience. I have the advantage of editorial skills gleaned in the world of publishing, where the standards couldn’t be higher. So you may think of me as a social media consultant with better writing and grammar skills than most. Or perhaps you will think of me as a writer that comes with solid knowledge of SEO, publicity, marketing and web design. Either way, I can help you find your audience and your voice.

Did you know I used to have 42,000+ social media followers on a site that no longer exists? I'm sick of chasing people from one site to the next, so I'm starting a mailing list.

I'll use this list to share useful info I've gleaned from working as a book marketing pro, to the topics will be: publishing, Amazon, web design, advertising, branding, etc, with a focus on authors. NO FLUFF! I will not be emailing all the time, just when I have something useful to share.

Please pass tag any author you know who could use help building their platform.

Lately I've been spending more time on that social network that rhymed with True Fly than on this one.

Not putting the name because Meta sometimes buries content that talks about its competitors! But if you're on a network that is named after a color behind the clouds, drop it in the comments.

Looking for a spicy summer beach read? I've designed the web page and marketing for Rachel Callaghan Author's new book Grab the Groom and I just created a giveaway of the first ten chapters if you join her list.

We're only going to use the list to let folks know when the book is part of a discount or giveway---not a list with a bunch of emails, I promise!

The link below goes to the book description and there's a link at the bottom to get the freebie or start reading.

Rachel Callaghan Angela Kucherenko Gypsy-Karél Bennett will want to see this.

After my literary fiction debut, I was in the mood to write something fun… and outrageous. My second book, Grab the Groom, is a satire of reality TV dating shows and the lookism and fat phobia that goes along with them. In this dark comedy, I think you’ll be surprised how much trouble a homely l...

Did you know that I design websites?

I just finished building this page for Rachel Callaghan's new book Grab the Groom. I hope you'll check it out... before it runs away from you.

(I built the whole site but this page is pretty neat!)

Resharing this old post for Angela Kucherenko

Previously my attitude towards having your blog posts sent automatically to Facebook was that busy authors can't post at the same rate as big companies with marketing departments, and having your latest blog sent automatically to Facebook can fill that gap.

But today I've decided I can no longer recommend that. Automated posts just don't get the same engagement as a post you wrote yourself.

An automated Facebook post won't have:
* @-name tags of interested parties (so no guaranteed views)
* A customized headline, different from the name of the link (in most cases)
* A full-sized image that will grab people's attention

I don't have any evidence that Facebook punishes automated posts so they rank lower, but today I've realized that's besides the point. If you are relying on automation to be social for you, the post will fail. Social media will only help build your brand if you engage with people.

The clients I have who do well on Facebook are the ones who spend time there, period. Automation is too easy a crutch.

If you're experienced at marketing, you could still save some time using automation, but most of clients are not experienced marketers. They need to build a habit of engaging with their audience, and if your post automatically goes to Facebook it's too easy to forget it, or assume it's all taken care of. And if that automated post doesn't get traction on Facebook, it's too easy to assume it was the post that was bad. When really no one saw it, not even you.
