Each month, She Writes hosts a She
Writers Launch Party via Twitter.What is a Twitter launch party? It’s a chance to get
together via a Twitter Chat to support and celebrate all of the
members of our community who have published that month. Like those
large families that meet each month to celebrate all family members
with birthdays that fall in that month, this is an online version
to celebrate the birth (so to speak!) of our members’ books.
***TONIGHT'S PARTY CANCELLED!!!!: November 9th, 9:00-9:45PM
ET (6:00-6:45PM PT)***
During the party, you’ll have a chance to:
o meet the authors and learn a little about their newly published book
o ask questions of the people who have published books
o share your pithy party humor
o join us in a virtual toast to this month’s people who published
o get more familiar with one way to use Twitter – it’s not as
scary as it sounds!
All are welcome, not just She Writes members, so invite
anyone you think would enjoy the affair!
How to Join the She Writers Launch Party:
• You need a Twitter account to participate. You can sign up at www.twitter.com if you don’t yet have an account.
• If you have participated in Twitter Chats or Twitter Parties previously, just use the hashtag #SWLP and whatever method you normally use for Twitter chat.
• If you are new to Twitter Chat or Twitter Parties, we think the following method is the easiest way to participate:
a. Sign up with www.tweetchat.com. It’s just a few clicks to link your Twitter account to TweetChat. Allow at least 15 minutes in advance of the Launch Party for sign up, so you won’t miss any of the festivities!
b. When you want to join the party at 9 p.m. ET on August 24, sign into www.tweetchat.com, and enter hashtag SWLP (Look for the big box at the top of the screen with a # sign beside it.) This will direct you to a TweetChat room where you’ll be connected with everyone who is participating. And you won’t be distracted by any tweets coming in about any other topic.
c. When you want to leave the She Writers Launch Party chat,
just close the www.tweetchat.com page.
When there are lots of us participating, authors may not be able
to respond to everyone’s comments and questions during the live
event. But we will post a transcript of the whole event, and
authors may be able to respond to any unanswered questions later in
a group at She Writes called, for instance, August Book Release
Group.
We invite everyone to go with the flow! If we happily have lots of party goers, the Twitter stream could get a little chaotic. No matter how it goes, we’ll be asking for your feedback on how to make future She Writes Twitter events even more productive and fun! Technology is not perfect, so if you have any difficulties before or during the Party tweet our host, Kathy Jordan, at @KathyJchat. You can contact Kathy with any questions ahead of time by messaging her here through She Writes. "See" you at the party!
• In August we celebrated the publication of:
Maddie Dawson’s The Stuff That Never Happened
Chandra Hoffman's Chosen
Kathy Jordan’s Becoming a Life Change Artist: 7 Creative Skills to Reinvent Yourself at Any Stage of Life
Lissa Rankin’s Encaustic Art: The Complete Guide to Creating Fine Art With Wax
Lori L.Tharps novel Substitute Me

mnwritergirrl: Congrats to all She Writers with books coming out

#SWLP
UEArmyWife: @deborahgirlwpen Don't get me started. That could be a
whole other book :)... #SWLP
LoriTharps: Correction, the NYT says Nanny novels are hot. My
'nanny novel' was not included in their examples:( #swlp
bmorrison9: yes, congrats to all! so exciting to be able to help
each other out. #SWLP
KatTansey: @deborahgirlwpen I tried to publish mine in 1994 - way
ahead of its time. Now people are interested... TIMING #swlp
Steenaholmes: @deborahgirlwpen oh good question! #swlp
UEArmyWife: @deborahgirlwpen I think the writing of the book is
easier than the business of the book, getting a publisher promoting
etc #SWLP
EVictoriaF: @lisa_rivero And I so owe You an email #swlp
naturapprentice: RT @lissarankin: My book just came out August 10,
so if you're curious to learn how to paint with beeswax, here's how
http://amzn.to/dcC6Wv #swlp
maddiedawson1: @deborahgirlwpen I learned that you can make so many
friends online so it's not such a lonely thing anymore! So much
help and support #swlp
kwicoff: @loritharps You're kidding, on the day of publication,
they left yours off nanny novel list? Letter to the editor time!
#SWLP
LoriTharps: On the Other hand, Entertainment Weekly included Sub Me
in their round-up of Nanny Novels we Love. Thank you former
employer! #swlp
UEArmyWife: Maddie, what was your biggest lesson learned? did you
want to respond or pass? #SWLP
Dragonsatva: RT @KatTansey: Choosing to Be: Lessons in Living from
a Feline Zen Master teaches how to BE in your life, not DO your
life. http://ow.ly/2uguQ #swlp
UEArmyWife: Anyone here who has read any of the books and has some
thoughts? #SWLP
maddiedawson1: @loritharps I'm so sorry that happened. That kind of
thing can just make you feel terrible. Luckily we don't have to
depend on NYTimes #swlp
KatTansey: @Dragonsatva Thanks for the RT -- really appreciate it:)
#swlp
deborahgirlwpen: @loritharps @kwicoff @maddiedawson1 Seriously.
#SWLP
maddiedawson1: @UEArmyWife I agree w you. The marketing is far
harder than the writing! And I learned you have to do so much
yourself! #swlp
LoriTharps: @maddiedawson1 I'm not sorry. The former publicist in
me saw it as an oppty to talk about the literary sweet spot for
Nanny stories. #swlp
UEArmyWife: @maddiedawson1 My agent said publishers don't sell
books. authors sell books. #SWLP
maddiedawson1: @LoriTharps Your book sounds so wonderful. Actually,
all of these do! We're so lucky to have the oppty to talk about
these books! #swlp
UEArmyWife: @LoriTharps Wow reat that you were a publicist and
could bring that to your book's promotion! #SWLP
LoriTharps: And don't get me started on all of my favorite TV/movie
nannies. #swlp
KatTansey: @LoriTharps As a former publicist, do you now do your
own pr? #swlp
UEArmyWife: @maddiedawson1 did you really write your book in
Starbucks? #SWLP
maddiedawson1: @UEArmyWife I did! Well, a lot of it anyway. It's
quieter there than my house. And no distracting doorknobs to
polish! #swlp
UEArmyWife: What about some of our other writers here tonight? What
has been the biggest surprise to you abour writing or getting
published? #SWLP
LoriTharps: @KatTansey Yes, but if I were paying me, I'd be fired.
I don't have enough time to be my own publicist for real. It's also
embarassing #swlp
dustyearthmom: Shari Simpson dustyearthmom A big Woot! to all the
She Writes authors with books coming out this month. Major
congrats. #swlp
UEArmyWife: @maddiedawson1 Who polishes doorknobs. I must be a
slob! #SWLP
UEArmyWife: @dustyearthmom Thanks! #SWLP
LoriTharps: Being your own publicist often feels like being your
own pimp. You go home feeling dirty at night. Just my opinion.
#swlp
deborahgirlwpen: In addition to buying the book (!), what's the one
thing each author would like SWers to do to support their efforts
and get word out? #SWLP
maddiedawson1: @UEArmyWife No, no. You're not a slob. It's that
polishing doorknobs sometimes is easier than writing! But at
Starbucks--no doorknobs #swlp
KatTansey: Biggest surprise was getting Findhorn Press to pick up
my book for a new edition - we met on Twitter!! #swlp
kwicoff: RT @LoriTharps: Being your own publicist often feels like

ripelife: @Lissarankin maybe publishing errors are like a humility
block in quilting? a sign of respect for divinity? #swlp congrats
