Show Notes

Hey Collaborist! Welcome to 2023, we've been waiting for you.

Have you ever caught yourself daydreaming about how to drum up more interest in your writing? Maybe you've come up with some wild ideas about how to sell a truckload of books. Well, we encourage you to make sure that "wild" doesn't equal "bad" because there are plenty of bad marketing tricks that people try to play and ultimately, they're not only unsuccessful as a get rich quick scheme, they can also completely obliterate an author's career in its tracks. For instance, on this episode of Collaborcast we talk about one "innovative" author strategy that involved faking their own death. Don't do that.

We also talk about the value of New Year's resolutions and how to incorporate the concept (or a modified version of it) as you enter the first page of the calendar.

Lastly, we've got an accountability check. If you're so inclined, let us know the books you're reading this week, next week, and so on.
