You’re so good about sharing, Flora! Thank you! Have you considered collaborated in a manner that’s two-way — where it’s some kind of exchange of services or support so that you, too, are getting assistance?

Collaborating is smart, satisfying, and rewarding for all involved. I enjoy supporting fellow authors in many ways, but especially featuring them in a blog post and spreading their news on my social media networks.

As a matter of fact, I’m about to share this post with several of my FB groups.

Thanks for keeping the book biz buzzing.

Thanks, Terry! I agree with you about ASJA — members are particularly good about helping each other learn and grow. It’s impressive.

Sandy, Thanks for this great article and the wonderful ideas. As you know we are both active in the American Society of Journalists and Authors. One of the constant little slogans that I've heard over the years: "We train our competition." It is true that on one level we are competitors but actually we are stronger if we cooperate rather than compete. I've seen this over and over in the publishing world.
