50 Instagram Hashtags for Writers

For the past few weeks I have been exploring how to use Instagram more effectively as an author. I've learnt a lot and put the ideas into practice. However, I discovered that there are a humongous amount of #Hashtags out there which writers can use. As I'm in a caring, sharing sort of mood I thought I would put some of these together in one place. I'm hoping this will help you as a writer. So without further ado we have:

Your Guide to Selling More Books

A couple of months ago I gave a talk at the ACW Writers Day in Bath. This was on book marketing and promotion. I will also be running a day of workshops at the First Page Courses residential course, Getting Away With Murder. What a fabulous tie in, murder and promotion. Not that I am suggesting you kill people to promote your book of course.

I had the idea to write a book to accompany the talk and Power Packed Book Marketing: Sell More Books, was born and launched into the world.  I learned a lot about marketing whilst researching for the book and it has helped me to move my own marketing forward exponentially. It is jam packed full with hints and tips on how to develop your own marketing strategies. You can use the ideas in the book as they are, or use them as a springboard for your own ideas. Either way it will help you to get started with, or move forward the marketing of your book. I have used most of the strategies in the book and I can guarantee that they have worked for me. My books are selling well in several countries and are growing every month. New countries are being added each month with the latest being Mexico. Exciting times for a writer.

If you put one of these strategies into place once a week for the next year you will have carried out fifty two activities to help move your book sales forward. Just think how much impact this could have on the numbers of books you are selling.

The time to start marketing your book is right now. You can grab the book right now from Amazon by clicking on the link on the side of the blog. It is also available on iBooks and kobo. This is the time for you to develop your own Power Packed Marketing plan and sell more books.

I wish you all the best with your own books.
