“Use Your Name and Your Themes to Advance Your Writer’s Platform-Building Journey”

Coach Teresa Jade LeYung asks:  “The word ‘PLATFORM’ – what is that?”

• PLATFORM  = What your name stands FOR!  What you care about! The themes you write about!

“Your writer’s platform statement is simply knowing how to articulate the themes you write about and linking those themes to your name.”

Why build and fortify your writer’s platform?   To attract more attention BEFORE & AFTER publication, with ease.

How? By:

• * creating your PLATFORM STATEMENT
• * showcasing it – from your email signature block … to your website/blog’s description/taglines… to press releases and talking points, etc. etc.
• * training other people to broadcast your name and platform statements.

“Make your name stand for something—to attract target consumers who are likely to buy what you have to sell.”  (Day 10 of Coach Teresa’s workbook Build Your Writer’s Platform & Fanbase In 22 Days)

What is the “something”? THEMES/SUBJECT MATTERS IN YOUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY  

Who are “target consumers”?  READERS WHO CARE ABOUT THE THEMES/SUBJECT MATTERS YOU CARE ABOUT

Examples: (for fiction and nonfiction and for your services)

“I am  Teresa Jade LeYung, formerly Teresa LeYung-Ryan. Through my novel Love Made of Heart, I encourage adult children of mentally ill parents to speak openly about the stigmas.”

“I am Teresa Jade LeYung.  Through my monologues, I help survivors of family violence find their own voices.”

“I am  Teresa Jade LeYung, formerly Teresa LeYung-Ryan.  Through my coaching services and my workbook Build Your Writer’s Platform & Fanbase In 22 Days, I show fiction and nonfiction writers how to attract attention before and after publication.”

“I am Theme Consultant Teresa Jade LeYung.  I teach writers of fiction and nonfiction how to identify themes in their manuscripts so that they can rewrite with ease.”

I am Coach Teresa Jade LeYung who teaches my clients (writers and artists) how to reach out, not stress out, before and after publication –

* identify themes in your manuscripts so that you can rewrite with ease;

* identify themes in your intellectual properties and create scripts for your websites/blogs, pitches, query letters, press releases, talking-points, one-minute videos, photo slideshows, and the all-mighty blog posts.

Please visit http://LoveMadeOfHeart.com/blog  and  http://WritingCoachTeresa.com  for resources.

Coach Teresa’s motto:  “Reach out, not stress out. Help your fans find you BEFORE & AFTER publication”

“I had such a good time on CBS Channel 5 Bay Sunday.  My big thanks to:  Arts-in-the-Valley radio show host Kim McMillon, Bay Sunday producer Akilah Bolden-Monifa, Bay Sunday host Frank Mallicoat (3 time Emmy Award journalist), Bay Sunday team (including audio expert Francisco Gomez, interns Jennifer and Chelsea, the gurus behind stage), colleagues Joan Gelfand, Ishmael Reed, and Pireeni Sundaralingam, and all my friends and clients who cheered for me and my colleagues.”

I care about helping writers thrive in the publishing arena.  Coaching writers before and after publication is what I enjoy doing.  Some clients prefer my coaching them 5 to 15 minutes a day for 22 consecutive days ( in-person, via Skype or phone calls); some prefer an hour or two hours at a time.  Start with my workbook — You can sneak preview the 2 exercises for Day 1 in Build Your Writer’s Platform & Fanbase In 22 Days by going to Amazon and take advantage of their “Look Inside” feature.
