Edie Melson returns to Writer's Talk (our 40th!) to talk about the author and social media and her new book CONNECTIONS, Social Media and Networking Techniques for Writers. I had the privilage of reading the book before publication and highly recommend it.
Social media is now part of our lives and especially the lives of writers. It is not unusual to hear an agent or editor ask about an author's social media presence. It can be confusing with Facebook, Google+, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and others vying for our attention. Edie helps us focus on the key social media outlets and advises us where to begin and how to grow a following.
CONNECTIONS can be purchased here or here (e-book), or here (Amazon).

Can't wait to be with you both again in May! Edie, you're definitely the Social Media Maven, and I'm so thrilled to count you as my techie friend. (The Lord knows I need all the help I can get!) :-)
