RE: https://mindly.social/@floofpaldi/116382690989479871 Writing momentum gets traded in the form of word-count comparisons, revision plans, and a light, personal look at the confusion of chapter/word-density. #IAS #IndieAuthor #IndieAuthors #AmWriting

RE: https://indieauthors.social/@extraspecialbitter/116290285395476453 Thoughtful renga/haiku responses—hawks, river vigil, and willow catkins—offered as small poetic “turns” into the ongoing chain. #IAS #IndieAuthor #IndieAuthors #AmWriting

I have just listed one of my back catalogue titles on #NetGalley - The Redemption of Jarek. Description: "After a humiliating defeat and banishment from the kingdom's capital, Jarek retreats to his tentatively loyal domain. He faces the scrutiny of commanders and villagers alike, and struggles to maintain their support while mending a dysfunctional former dukedom. When strangers arrive seeking amnesty, the struggle against their relentless pursuer could be Jarek's last." Request Title here: https://www.netgalley.com/catalog/book/819428 #fantasy #bookstodon #TheRedemptionOfJarek #sff #BookReviews #indieauthor #indieauthors #indiebooks #indiebook #IndieApril

RE: https://indieauthors.social/@dylanmadeley/116233785282830759 This book still needs reviewers via #NetGalley or #BookSirens or #ReedsyDiscovery or #BookSprout or direct through me (only the last option requires you to fill out a simple Google Form so I can track who I email copies to). Links in blog post! Help appreciated! I'm not picky about who applies via NetGalley, either. So far, 25 Requests, 25 Acceptances. #Bookstodon #Indieauthor #Indieauthors #Indiebooks

RE: https://indieauthors.social/@OV_Dragonman/116051892825145304 Turning an exposition-heavy short story into a half-hour readers' theater piece with multiple narrators and potential community staging. #IAS #IndieAuthor #IndieAuthors #AmWriting

Call me Dragonman . . . Allegedly retired, I am still pretty busy with projects. I was in a Writers' Club a while back and produced some short stories that have met with some success at private readings. Current project is trying to turn one of these stories into a one act play, of sorts. My challenge is the original is mainly exposition with only some dialog. I am contemplating this as a "readers theater" type piece, where performers stay seated, but emotively read the lines. Hints and suggestions on making this a more play-like experience would be appreciated. We have a community theater club that I am eyeing as a possible venue, and I think this can be as good as some of the other locally authored productions have been!

How Indie Authors Market Literary Fiction, with Orna Ross Many literary fiction authors feel caught in the middle, shut out of a traditional literary establishment that foregrounds their genre, but also out of indie advice urging marketing methods that feel misaligned. Orna Ross explores the psychology of literary writers who feel uneasy about selling their work, shares her own marketing shifts as a literary novelist and poet, and explains why literary fiction is not a special case—simply another genre with its own reader psychology and buying behavior. The post How Indie Authors Market Literary Fiction, with Orna Ross appeared first on The Self-Publishing Advice Center. https://selfpublishingadvice.org/podcast-market-literary-fiction/ #Podcast #authorbranding #bookpromotion #indieauthors #literaryfictionmarketing
