Launch to Legacy is a resource you can turn to throughout your publishing journey—not just at launch, but in the months and years that follow.
It’s for authors who want more than just a moment of attention. It’s for those who want long-term impact.
In this book, I discuss practical ways you can begin building your platform today, like…
- Show up online, authentically. Use your social media accounts to share your message, process, or inspiration. Let people connect with the real you.
- Get involved locally. Attend events, open mics, book fairs, or creative workshops. Tell people you’re working on a book. Community visibility matters.
- Build relationships with bookstores. Learn their requirements for self-published titles. Ask to attend or volunteer at events they host.
- Submit articles or blog posts to local publications. Whether in print or online, guest writing is a great way to introduce your voice to new readers.
- Start your own blog. Use it to share insights, personal stories, or behind-the-scenes glimpses of your writing journey.
- Network with other writers. Join online communities or local writer’s groups to stay inspired and connected.
These are grassroots strategies, and while they take time and effort, they always work. What they build is deeper than social followers—they build community and trust.
