Julie, thank you so much for blogging about the Redwood Writers Conference and my workshop. I like your mission statement!

As you go through my workbook Build My Name, Beat the Game, you’ll see how you can turn the phrase “Just another WordPress.com weblog” (in your blog banner) into your mission statement (what WordPress calls “tagline.” You’ll find the tagline box under the “Settings” icon and then under “General”). You can change your tagline anytime you want to by going to “Settings.”

Julie, I’m cheering for you. While your novels help readers enjoy sleuthing and solving puzzles, your rewriting each draft is the labor of love of putting a ten-thousand-piece puzzle together. Aah, the craft of writing a book. Are you also a member of Sisters in Crime?

Let’s link our sites. I’ll see you on facebook too!

Best wishes from Manuscript Consultant/Writing Career Coach Teresa LeYung Ryan

I thought I left a comment before, but don’t see it. It was a thrill meeting you. Your workshop was inspiring and it was a pleasure to meet you. I enjoyed your enthusiasm and the helpful information you passed on. My writing will help readers enjoy sleuthing and solve puzzles. Keep Writing and thanks again for the great workshop.

Deborah! Way to go! After you get your URL, come back and submit another comment (so that when readers of my blog click on your name, they’ll be sent to your site). Wonderful mission statement: Deborah Taylor-French helps kids save dogs’ lives and re-home pets with Dog Leader Mysteries.
I encourage you to create & wear your name tag (that includes your mission statement) and “be seen” at your local bookstores and libraries. Gain fans now, before your books are published. People will ask you: “What is that?” or “How do you help kids save dogs?” Tell them that you are the author of the series, and that if they wish to know when your books will be published… to give you their email or facebook twitter address. That’s how you further build your platform–fans waiting with excitement to read your books. I cheer for you! Sincerely, Coach Teresa LeYung Ryan

What a thrill to meet you and be in your session at Redwood Writers Conference. I’ve written 1,780 words today, two scenes for my second in my series for middle grade readers. Hope to secure a url for my first blog and website this week.

Here’s my new tag line on all my emails and comments.
