May 18, 2018 By: Jason Bougger

The Best Articles I Read About Writing This WeekHey, it’s time again for Five Links Friday. Enjoy!

1. Let’s start with a place where I failed miserably with my first book launch and make sure you don’t make the same mistake with your. Promote it early! Here are some tips from Rachel Thompson at BadReadhead Media: How to Create Pre-Launch Buzz for Your Book Right Now.

2. Here’s a write-up on coming up with The Perfect Pitch by Laurie Schnebly Campbell at Romance University.

3. Let’s switch to grammar for a second and check out this post on Hyphens, En Dashes, and Em Dashes at First Editing.

4. Here are some great, free templates for creating Character Profiles from D.L. Collins.

5. And finally, since we opened this week with some pre-launch marketing tips, let’s close with some post-launch Book Marketing Tips For Self Published Authors by Derek Haines.

That’s it for this week. Have a great weekend, and check back tomorrow for another episode of the podcast.
