ALT ✍️ WRITERS: Lost at a Book Conference? We Built a Book Marketing Map https://booklinker.com/blog/i-got-lost-at-a-book-conference-so-we-built-a-subway-map/#comment-77686 by Jesse Lakes via @GeniusLink and @BookLinker - shared by @BadRedheadMedia FREE tool for all authors. I may have even played a small part! How do you map a world you barely understand? Oh man, did I get SCHOOLED. My draft read like a launch checklist: set these things up, publish, done. Jenna Coleman, Rachel Thompson, KJ Waters, and Joe Solari all pushed back on this, saying most book marketing happens after launch, and that’s where things compound. Rachel put it plainly: “Most authors spend a lot more time doing evergreen marketing after launch, continually driving readers back through the loop, testing what works, and optimizing.” Click to read the rest!

ALT ✍️ Author Interview: The Lies We Tell Ourselves and Why We Believe Them via Munn Avenue Press with J. Herman Kleiger @JHermanKleiger @JamesHKleiger https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMShFA4oUDk “I’m fine.” How many times have you said it and almost believed it? As a psychologist and a novelist, I’m fascinated by the stories we tell ourselves. What happens when a character can no longer believe their own version of events?

ALT #MondayBlogs 8 Writing and Publishing Lessons I Learned From Writing 8 Books | by @BadRedheadMedia https://geni.us/8Lessons What eight books taught me about fear, rejection, marketing, and the writing life...so far. I've written eight books as of this date: self-pub’d, hybrid, had an agent, directed a hybrid imprint, worked with two small boutique publishers, and have owned my own book marketing biz since 2011. I work in the industry. You’d think I’d understand how publishing works by now. And I do, mostly. Yet every time I publish a book, some ridiculous, hopeful little part of me still thinks: Maybe this is the one everyone will chitchat about at work. Maybe I can just eat bonbons and hope my book sells millions. Maybe readers will magically find it cause that always happens…

ALT I wrote Grammar Errors Part I. Hundreds of you had THOUGHTS. Here’s Part II (and yes, I know it should be ‘Grammatical’ errors, but that sounds like little green Mike Wazowski in Monsters). Bring your red pen! by @BadRedheadMedia via @Substack https://geni.us/GrammarErrors2

ALT #MondayBlogs Grammar Errors You May Be Making Right Now and How to Stop. Please. | @BadRedheadMedia https://geni.us/GrammaticalErrors Twenty-five word crimes that make writers twitch... Okay, I admit it; I have grammar pet peeves. Come on, we all do. We may pretend we’re far too evolved to judge other people’s word choices, but then someone writes alot, and suddenly we’re pacing around the house muttering, “It’s two words. TWO, dammit.” Might just be me. So, with affection and a tiny speck of judgment, let’s discuss a few repeat offenders. 1. Alot No. It’s a lot. Two words. You wouldn’t write alittle, abunch, or awholemess. Please stop making a and lot live together before they’re ready. 2. For Free You received the book free. You downloaded the guide free. You attended the event free of charge. You can say you received it for free; that phrase is grammatically acceptable, widely used, and understood. I still don’t like it.

ALT 🔵 NEW: How One COVID Workaround Helped Save My $100 Million Business by @ItWorkedForMe by Jeff Burgess https://jeffburgessauthor.com/2026/10/30/workaround-saved-my-business via @Substack Like most of the country, I watched Dr. Fauci plead the Fifth over one hundred times – as is his right to do. Interestingly enough, he had taken away so many of our rights and freedoms, so just because he had the right to do so, it did not mean it wasn’t a cowardly act. It’s always easier to look back on something. Sadly, like everything else these days, it was split along party lines.
