To reduce your costs, keep word count down before you pay an editor.<br \/>\n2. After publication, you need to have a plan to market your book. Your job is not to write (or illustrate) books while the publisher takes care of everything.<br \/>\n3. Break your manuscript into manageable goals, chunks of word count.<br \/>\n4. The highs and lows of publishing can mess with your emotions. It is a challenging occupation \u2013 be prepared.<br \/>\n5. It is foolish to avoid editing. An editor works with you to get you in the door.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Session: Publishing today \u2013 Publishers: Rochelle Manners <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wombatbooks.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\">(Wombat Books)<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.evenbeforepublishing.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">(Even Before Publishing)<\/a> Julie Firmstone <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cepstore.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\">(CEP)<\/a> and George Bryant <a href=\"http:\/\/www.daystarbooks.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">(Daystar Books)<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nTo save me repeating what Narelle has written on her blog, there is a brief article on this particular session worth reading:\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/narelleatkins.wordpress.com\/2013\/10\/15\/2013-caleb-conference-highlights-and-christian-publishing-in-australia\/\" target=\"_blank\">Narelle Atkins blog.<\/a><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1637\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1637\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1637\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.kayleenwest.com.au\/portfolio\/15-key-publishing-tips\/authors-publishers-editors-caleb-conference\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kayleenwest.com.au\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/authors-publishers-editors-Caleb-conference.jpg?fit=1000%2C667&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1000,667\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Authors, publishers, editors and award winners  at the Caleb Conference 2013\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Authors, publishers, editors and award winners  at the Caleb Conference 2013&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Authors, publishers, editors and award winners  at the Caleb Conference 2013&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kayleenwest.com.au\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/authors-publishers-editors-Caleb-conference.jpg?fit=600%2C400&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1637\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kayleenwest.com.au\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/authors-publishers-editors-Caleb-conference-600x400.jpg?resize=600%2C400\" alt=\"Authors, publishers, editors and award winners at the Caleb Conference 2013\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kayleenwest.com.au\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/authors-publishers-editors-Caleb-conference.jpg?resize=600%2C400&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kayleenwest.com.au\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/authors-publishers-editors-Caleb-conference.jpg?resize=200%2C133&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kayleenwest.com.au\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/authors-publishers-editors-Caleb-conference.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kayleenwest.com.au\/portfolio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/authors-publishers-editors-Caleb-conference.jpg?w=1000&amp;ssl=1 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1637\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Authors, publishers, editors and award winners at the Caleb Conference 2013<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Session: Author Platform and Marketing Tips &amp; Traps: Kayleen West (me) and Rochelle Manners <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wombatbooks.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\">(publisher)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1. Think socially with a heart of servitude. Today, it is not about advertising but valued connections and visibility\u2013not selling but interacting.<br \/>\n2. Always check your motives.<br \/>\n3. Make sure your content is interesting, useful and relevant\u2013 not spammy!<br \/>\n4. Note what irritates you and don\u2019t repeat it yourself.<br \/>\n5. Twitter, Facebook and Youtube are the top 3 platforms on social media for an author.<br \/>\n6. Anything you do online\u2013 be professional and be searchable by being visible.<br \/>\n7. Authors are the biggest offenders of poor websites. Don\u2019t skimp here, if you are going to have one make sure it looks professional.<br \/>\n8. Meet lots of interesting people and enjoy the interaction.<br \/>\n9. Keep learning new ways to share what you love to create and marketing won\u2019t be such a pain.<br \/>\n10. It is important to plan and have a list to in your time. Choose what is most appropriate and comfortable for you and step out from there.<br \/>\nI also listed 24 avenues to build your author platform on. If there is enough interest I can share more session tips later. Any takers?<\/p>\n<p>There were many other sessions but unfortunately you need to attend these events to get the all the goodies. It would make for a very long post.
