113 - BAD Pitches

My book, Creative Collaborations, is just a few weeks away from release! In another episode on collaborations, I'm talking about bad pitches.  To kick off a collab, you'll have to pitch.

Om Podcasten

Create If Writing is a weekly podcast for writers and bloggers dealing with authentic platform building online. You will hear from experts on list-building, connecting through Twitter, and how to utilize Facebook. But tools for building an audience would feel empty without a little inspiration, so these training episodes are balanced with inspirational interviews with writers who share their creative process, ups and downs, and how they have dealt with success or failure.
