It's not about annoying each other with what we have to offer. It's about gently inviting people into our work. Especially in a community of other writers, artists, and creators of all types, we each contribute to the whole in this way.<br /><br />Thanks for hoisting Ann and me up onto your platform with you for these few weeks. You've welcomed us so warmly into your space.Planes, Trains, Roads | Charity Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05834561736691965109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-7989333975197909702015-01-19T10:39:02.269-06:002015-01-19T10:39:02.269-06:00"...your story doesn’t stop at the end of the..."...your story doesn’t stop at the end of the book." I like your take on my experience in promotion (and platform). We didn't call it platform back then, back when the editor pressed me to consider speaking, but that's what people say now. It's what you discovered along the way. <br /><br />And that was a crazy year, trying to get that manuscript together! But we did it--and it's moving into workplaces helping people see what they do each day in a new light. It was worth it, for me. I hope it was worth the frantic effort for you, too. <br /><br />#poetryatworkday<br /><br />:)Ann Kroekerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09031147191936773330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-42305439417646022332015-01-19T10:25:50.639-06:002015-01-19T10:25:50.639-06:00Glynn, I'll highlight your post on the Christi...Glynn, I'll highlight your post on the Christian Poets & Writers blog as many members want to know more about this.

I love the idea that whatever we do as authors to promote our work, it should be an extension of our story.<br />Thanks, Glynn!Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-32072540851367327242015-01-19T05:45:06.526-06:002015-01-19T05:45:06.526-06:00Sound advice that rings true, Glynn.
