Are you a busy writer seeking balance between a hectic writing life and building a network of social media supporters?

In this two-part course, we will discuss time-sensitive strategies for promoting yourself and your artistry on social media. We will brainstorm creative ideas to interact, engage, and share relatable content without overwhelming ourselves or losing time. Finally, we will consider simple systems for managing the tedious challenge of social media and website upkeep.
