Did You Know?🤔
Every public post you publish on Skool has its own unique URL. That means it isn't just a post inside your community... it's a standalone webpage that can be shared, linked to, and even indexed by search engines, giving your content a chance to keep bringing in views long after you hit publish. Instead of treating every post like a temporary update, think of it as a long-term asset that answers questions, solves problems, and earns attention over time. Start writing posts people will still be finding months from now. Did you know this ?

I honestly didn’t know this. That actually makes posting on Skool a lot more interesting.
Published my book today
KDP conversion “create space” was a task.

Congrats! 🎉 KDP can definitely be a headache sometimes. Glad you got it across the finish line.
All writers & all genres welcome!
What genre is your current manuscript? Have you published before or will this be your first?

I mostly write horror, and I’ve published before. Always nice to see what other writers are working on.
One Tip That Helped My Book Grow Faster
One of the biggest mistakes I see authors make is waiting until their book is published before thinking about marketing. In my experience, the real growth starts before launch. What helped me the most was building visibility early, creating a launch plan, staying consistent with promotion, and making sure readers knew my book existed before release day. That's the approach I used with In Her Own League, and it completely changed how I looked at publishing. A great book is important, but readers can't buy a book they've never discovered. If you're writing your next book, don't wait until it's published to think about marketing. Start building your audience now, connect with readers in your genre, and create a simple roadmap for your launch. Even small, consistent steps can make a huge difference over time. Question: At what stage do you usually start thinking about marketing your book before you publish, after you publish, or only when sales begin to slow down?

This is something I’m starting to realize too. Waiting until launch day is probably way too late.
The One Small Thing
I recently asked a handful of readers what makes them leave a 5 star review versus just quietly finishing a book and moving on. The answer had nothing to do with plot or writing quality. It came down to one small thing most authors never think to do. Anyone want to guess what it is before I share?

Maybe they just felt like the author actually cared about hearing from them. That can make a difference.
