From My Students

“I came to this class knowing absolutely nothing specific, re: blogging. I left with a wealth of information. The materials handed out were also very helpful. Great class for beginners. The social networking class was even better for me than the blogging class. I learned some valuable info for when I start writing seriously. Even though I am not there yet, this class helped me see what I can do to sell my product.”
Sharon Craig
Writer’s Center Blogging and Social Networking Student

“Confident, well-organized, substantive presentations—and patient to boot! She fielded every question and led to think about approaches to marketing we had never considered before.”

“The course helped me to clarify my goals as a freelance writer. The class discussions and workbook activities provided useful strategies for mapping out a marketing plan. Now I have a better idea of how to capitalize on my strengths and make a plan that will work for me.”
Cherie McGovern
CityLit Student

“This was extremely informative and helpful and made me realize I shouldn’t be so apologetic about the need for self-promotion as both a teacher and an author.”
Margaret Whitman Blair
Writer’s Center Student

“This was a very helpful introduction to an overwhelming topic—it does not seem as daunting now, to establish a platform and presence, as it did before I took the class.”
Writer’s Center Student

“Useful in that it permitted me to evaluate where I should focus most of my time. The presentation made clear to me just how the social media could be useful in putting my name in lights.”
Writer’s Center Student

“I’ve invested so much time writing my memoir “Blind Curves,” but now I face the daunting task of marketing it. When I attended your book marketing class at the Writer’s Center, at the end of the afternoon I left smiling because I had learned that it was possible to market my book without living on the road. Since there was still a lot I needed to learn, I immediately ordered your book, “Marketing for Writers.” This workbook is so clearly written that I am already putting together a draft marketing plan as I read it. I have always had the drive and ambition to promote “Blind Curves,” but I needed to know where to funnel this energy. After attending class and reading your book, I have a better sense of how to launch a marketing effort. There are so many approaches to marketing a book and so I’ve paid particular attention to the statement in your book about not trying to do everything, but rather think about the behaviors of your desired audience and choose a few methods that will best reach them. So as I get ready to finish my project, I head off to my next adventure of marketing it with your voice in my head and book in hand.”

“Amid many such books, some from major publishers, I find that Angela’s stands out. Marketing for Writers contains more good info in its pages than you’ll find in manuals three times as long. It’s concise, fun and easy to read. Out of a thicket of excess information, I’m grateful for this smart, immediately useful tool”
David Y. Todd
Editor

“The information shared has inspired me to go home and take action!!”
Writer’s Center Student

“I met Angela at a marketing workshop she led at the Writer’s Workshop in Bethesda. I was immediately struck by her enthusiasm and grasp of the subject matter. There was so much material I decided to hire her as a consultant to help build a presence on the web and promote a book I’m writing. She patiently taught me about building a platform for publishers, writing blogs, and search engine optimization for my website. Her explanations were always clear and her manner encouraging. I highly recommend her and plan to use her in the future.”
Ed Bilanchone
