Learn about other ways you can be present online, create visibility for your work, and support other kidlit creators if social media isn’t your thing or feels like a lot of work that doesn’t energize you. This session will include a series of questions for brainstorming other venues and strategies for online engagement that are a good fit for you and can be undertaken at a slower pace. If you love social media, this session can help broaden your reach and create more content to share. Recording will be available to registered participants for a month after the event. PLEASE NOTE - You must register before the event in order to have access to the video.
