In this day and age, the art of connecting with your readers is perhaps the most important of all. In order to stand out from the crowd and have your message heard, you must engage your audience in creative ways and endear them to you. This takes intentional action steps where you, as the author, reach your readers to inspire, stimulate, and evoke authentic emotion and meaningful response. There are so many ways to accomplish this, but how do you know which would work best for you? How do you discover the most effective strategies? This episode of Publishing Today will provide the opportunity for you to learn from experts in the industry, Suzanne and Shawn Kuhn, as they share their vast wisdom on this topic.
