How Authors Can Rock Instagram

In fact, Bookstagrammers are the new book influencers in the world of social media. If you want your book to be noticed, you can’t afford to ignore the platform. Social media professor Crystal King will share with you the tricks and tools to develop the best Instagram content (be it photos, Stories, Reels or IGTV), and to find and connect with others with the same interests.

Please join us on Wednesday, August 18, 2021, at 1 pm PDT/2 pm MDT/3 pm CDT/4 pm EDT with marketing, social media and communications expert, and acclaimed author Crystal King as she presents How Authors Can Rock Instagram (part four of a four part series).

About Fireside Chat:

By now, we hope you have heard the exciting news that we have been invited by billionaire entrepreneur and Shark Tank TV star Mark Cuban and brilliant entrepreneur and former Node.io CEO Falon Fatemi to host an Adventures by the Book literary-themed series on their innovative new Fireside Chats, an interactive live podcast platform.

Fireside Chat features content creators like Adventures by the Book who are dedicated to facilitating meaningful dialogue to keep us connected, much like President Franklin Delano Roosevelt did during WWII with his radio fireside chats.

Like a cross between a live podcast (except no video so you can stay in your jammies!) and a call-in radio show where you can hop “on-stage” and have a live conversation with your favorite authors and other readers, our Adventures by the Book Fireside Chats will feature book discussions, live chats with authors, NovelNetwork book club visits, and other engaging and meaningful literary experiences.
