Ian Martyn Stops By To Visit With The Pukah

Welcome back to our Author Interview series.  Today, we have Ian Martyn joining us.  He is another author I’ve met through Facebook.  (Yes, if you haven’t figured out, most of the ones I’ve met I’ve met through Facebook.  A great place to meet and greet.)

Ian, why don’t you get us started by telling us a little about yourself and where you are from.

I’m living in Surrey, but I’m a…

Welcome back to the Author Interview series.  Today, we are visiting with a wonderful lady, Lexa Harpell.  I discovered this heartwarming lady on Facebook, and have enjoyed the developing friendship.  She hales from Sydney, Australia which typically means she’s around on one of my late night media runs.

Blogs, Author Plaforms, and Connecting: #Hashtags

Will be adding this to the platforming series.  A lot of wonderful information by Assaph Mehr.  Seriously, if you write (or read) I strongly suggest you check it out.

This post will be of interest to both fellow authors and readers. Every week, almost every day, there are “events” taking place on Twitter that showcase author’s current work. Som…

Blogs, Author Platforms, and Connecting (pt 17) - Networking through Street Teams

Blogs, Author Platforms, and Connecting (pt 17) – Networking through Street Teams

Welcome back to the not-quite-organized effort I’m putting together to try to help fellow writers develop their author and/or blogger platforms.

Last time I introduced the idea of expanding your platform through networking. Street teams are a specific type of networking – one that is not designed to generate content, but to get your content out there for others to find.  I have a tiny one, and…

Blogs, Author Platforms, and Connecting (pt 15) – Using the IFTTT Third Party App

This is the last tool I’ve worked with enough to know how powerful it is.  Unfortunately, the power behind the tool is not the versatility, or how well it can discriminate between what you WANT and what you GET, it is from the versatility in the way it can help connect social media platforms that may not otherwise get connected.

The program is called IFTTT, which stands for “If This Then…

Blogs, Author Platforms, and Connecting (pt 14) – Using the ManageUnfollow App

Another tool that I use regularly, though the free version is a bit limited is ManageUnfollow.  This one lets you see how your Twitter followers break down – active/inactive, following you back/not following, fake or spam followers, and a few other options.

You do have to connect with your Twitter account.  Not my favorite way of setting up an account, but one I live with for this.

So…

Welcome back.  Last time I mentioned that I’d be sharing some of the tools and tricks I use to keep the busy promotion schedule running for me.

Today, I’ll be showing you Hootsuite and how I used to use it. It was the second most important tool I had in my promotional tool box, behind the scheduler here on WordPress.

There is a close competitor – Buffer – but I haven’t nosed around in that…

Blogs, Author Platforms, Connecting (Pt. 3)

Welcome back.  I’m guessing you now have some content for your blog, and now are trying to figure out what to do with it.   I really debated whether to post this one first, or the content related posts (Platforming pt. 1 and Platforming pt. 2) first.  Since you’ve got some content, and are thinking about what to do with it, I’d like to hope you’ve  come to a good place to get started.  I know…

Blogs, Author Platforms, Connecting (Pt. 1)

To kick this series off, I’m going to go back and revisit a concept I talked about waaay back in December of last year.  If you’re just discovering my blog, you can go here to read that post.  I’ll wait.

Ready to move forward?

Wonderful.

Now, as I said then, Twitter is the heartbeat of any platform.  Information you put up there is gone almost as fast as you hit enter.  There’s ways to…

Jena Baxter’s Tolor interviews Raonal

Raonal is a pukah, so when you head over to see what he has to say, please…
