Networking and the Introvert

The thought of networking scares the bejeezus out of me. I am not exactly good at it. Aside from typing- – I LIKE doing that. I can chat and kabitz with the bet of them, but put me in the real world at a networking event and I would be the one in the corner observing the festivities.

I’ve yet to make use of all the social media outlets available to me. Thanks to me NOT paying attention, none of my posts are linking to my Facebook page, and I don’t have an IG or twitter set up under my the skynnar name.

Now I HOPE that one day, I’ll have reason to attend an event and make small talk with other writing professionals, and that someone- somewhere might enjoy what I have to say. For now, though, I need to keep things going here, and continue with the first draft (which is where I’m heading to next)

Where/what outlets do you have going to promote yourself?

Anyone use GoodReads?

I love writing even with writers' block, lack of time, lack of focus, lack of motivation. After reading that previous sentence, why would I even try to scribe. Seriously, I love the craft, the way the characters come to life in my brain. They give me direction and let me know when I'm mucking up the story.
