    I don’t remember how I came across this blog post, but it has been very helpful for me. I work with authors, most of whom are learning how to build an audience. Blogs can be a great tool for attracting a following, but you have to know how to use the tool. This advice has been very helpful in teaching authors how to use this tool. I reposted this on my own blog, and I’ve had 99 views of this page to date!
