What is #AwesomeAuthors?
#AwesomeAuthors is a hash tag that can be used on Twitter to assist in listing authors (published and unpublished) that you know of. I encourage EVERYONE to participate!
What is the purpose of the #AwesomeAuthors campaign?
There are several goals. The first, and foremost, is to get people reading! The second goal is to introduce new and relatively unknown authors to everyone. The third goal is to assist "non-readers" in finding an author who writes in a style that they can enjoy to read (I whole heartedly believe that there is something out there for everyone to enjoy- reading is one of the oldest forms of entertainment!).
Well, what about #WritersWednesday?
#WritersWednesday tends to happen only on Wednesdays; #AwesomeAuthors can be a daily thing for everyone!
I know of an #AwesomeAuthor, how can I get them featured on your blog?
Send me an email at prescottlindsay@gmail.com and I will do my best to contact that author and feature them! Unfortunately, at this time, I am not featuring well known authors, sorry.
How often will you feature #AwesomeAuthors on your blog?
At this time, I have plans to feature someone once a week. If this campaign picks up the pace, I might feature two a week. For now, the list is short, so once a week should be more than enough.
What can I do to help?
Tweet about #AwesomeAuthors that you know of! They don't have to be on Twitter, but if they are, even better! Tweet about ANY author, dead or alive. Tell us why you like them, or why you think others might like them.
To keep up with this campaign, follow me on Twitter @linzprescott and read my blog on blogspot atlindsayprescott.blogspot.com
