Welcome to the thirteenth post in a series of articles on writing, publishing and marketing your next book.

Here are the other blogs in the series

In case you didn’t know, there is such a thing as an author’s community, where authors meet and talk about things that affect them, exchange ideas, and network.

Let’s continue to look at some of these benefits, shall we?

Networking

The importance of networking has been discussed at numerous points in this book, and it still cannot be over-discussed. Networking is a good marketing strategy, and the best way to meet people is by associating with people.

What better companies to associate with than a company of fellow writers like you? From associating with writers like yourself, you can get the link to proper channels to market and promote your book.

Take for instance; you need a publisher for your manuscript after deciding to go the traditional way. Instead of bothering your head about getting one, you could easily contact members of your community, and ask them for a referral to an appropriate publisher for the kind of book you intend to publish. It is that easy.

Whatever it is you might need, with regards to publishing, marketing and promoting your book, the best place to find the proper network to tap into is in a community of authors.

You Go Farther Together

There is some kind of charm to associating with a group of people with like minds that lends support and advice to one another. They also assist each other on the way to the top and carry each other along.

Think of it as working with a team. Although you work independently, you are also dependent on another for the little encouragement and support you offer each other. Together, you can set goals and work towards them together.

If you are in a team and you all set goals together, you would not want to be the odd one out, the person that didn’t make it with the rest. This is enough to push you, and every other member in the community to work hard at creating their art, and making it amazing.
