My Guest Author is Lizzie Chantree: International Best Selling Author and Networker. Her latest book is Networking for Writers.
My guest author is the fab Lizzie Chantree who is not only an author, but a business mentor. She also runs author events.
Lizzie’s latest book is called ‘Networking for Writers,’ and here she is to tell about it and herself. Her book is published 29th October 2020.
Welcome Lizzie, thanks for agreeing to be my Guest Author.


I really appreciate you inviting me onto your blog today, Jane. Hello everyone. My name is Lizzie Chantree. I am a contemporary romance author who writes about feisty entrepreneurs with some pretty unusual businesses and I am about to publish my first non-fiction book for writers.
Lizzie Chantree International Bestselling Author and Business Mentor.
Member of the Society of Authors and The Romantic Novelists’ Association.
I work as a business mentor and run multi-author book events and wish I’d had a book like this to guide me when I published my first novel, as an unknown author. This book is for new authors but is also packed full of tips and advice for experienced writers. All of my books are international bestsellers and I have been lucky enough to reach the #1 spot on Amazon in more than one category. I believe this is due to my network of amazing readers and creatives.

In my new book, Networking for writers, I talk about ways to grow your readership and author network. Marketing your own work can seem very daunting, but that can be turned around to make marketing something you look forward to. It doesn’t have to eat into precious writing time, or push you into procrastination because you aren’t sure which direction to take next.
This book can be used as a writing reference, or as something to kick start a new way of looking at book marketing. My hope is that my book helps writers to follow their dreams, by offering ways to have time to write, build their brand and generate new book sales.
Are you swamped with book marketing and looking for a way to find new sales? Learn simple and effective networking techniques, to grow your readership and connect with other authors and book lovers, today!
Whether you are a new or experienced writer, self-published or traditionally published, this book will show you how to grow your readership and author network, through some of the most powerful of all marketing tools – word of mouth and recommendation.

This book will show you:
How networking can help you sell more books.
Why author branding is important.
How networking hours work.
Specific Facebook groups for writers
How to utilise social media to grow your readership.
How not to waste valuable writing time.
How to make our marketing more effective.
Throughout Networking for Writers, we will explore running or attending book signings, hosting seminars, finding a writing buddy or mentor, author networking groups, social media planning and so much more.

I think we are all overwhelmed Liz, all we want to do is write and it takes us away from that when we have to mess around with marketing.

What I’m learning is that marketing is necessary but can become an infinite time-suck.

It is and it can be. I think that Lizzie’s book aims to help authors not fall into that deep never-ending pit. It drives me nuts but is a necessary evil.
