“As writers we fool ourselves into thinking that the world wants to read our words – and even that readers owe us their attention. ISBNDB estimates that there are 158,464,880 books in the world. How will readers find yours? And why should they buy or read yours ahead of all the others? That’s where marketing skills come in.”
“To me, being a writer is about being part of the world and reflecting it back to readers; you’re not going to be able to do that in a well-rounded way if you restrict yourself.”
See what the Writing NSW staff have enjoyed the most in 2023, and what we’ll be reading over the holidays to end the year!
