group blogging
My marketing group is considering how to work together to create some group blogs. It's fascinating to watch this group of authors (over 500 of them now) figure out how to put this altogether. We're working on the overall concepts now. Figuring out what areas we might fit into. Who's interested in what?

Putting it together is a bit like having a big puzzle and no picture - or only a little piece of it. We know it's a blog, but where is it, what does it look like, what is it doing?

We could end up with half a dozen blogs coming out of this that team up authors who - like me - blog infrequently but enjoy reading them. If it's a group that has many members, you blog less frequently but readers have plenty to see. Those who are avid bloggers and love to write, could take on a longer project with a smaller group.

So in a way, you could say Marketing for Romance Writers is pregnant with a blog, probably multiples. 

Btw, you could take out the word romance and it would still work - many of our authors are in all sorts of genres. It's actually widened our base of experience. If you're an author, publisher, literary agent, or a promo service for authors, come join us.
