Nine Keys to Being Media Ready
A marketing guru was talking to authors and advised them to be “media ready” before hiring a marketing assistant. I watched most of the authors in the virtual room look confused. I work with authors, and many of them are not “media ready.” You can tell those that are: their sales are higher. What does…
No Good Deed…
How does the cliche’ go? No good deed ever goes unpunished. I’ve decided this week that must be a twisted truth. My new saying is: no good deed ever goes unopposed. AND — the follow up is that the better the deed, the higher the opposition. I’m into some really wonderful good deeds right now,…

Passwords and Secret Codes
We now have to reset a large number of passwords. The goal is to create passwords that are so complex that you’d never guess them. Except if they are that strong, you have zero chance of remembering them. You could use a password tool. These work very well for some people. Most of you already…

Friendship and Marketing
I had a discussion with a friend recently about sales and marketing. She was selling a product that she felt very strongly about and when people chose not to purchase it she took it as a slight. I’ve seen the same philosophy in marketing over the years in everything from Tupperware to real estate. I…

How to Painlessly Generate Dozens of Blog Ideas
Writers ask me what to blog about all the time. Recently, I was brainstorming story background (world-building) ideas with a writer. We were having a lot of fun just playing with the story. She stopped and stared at her screen full of ideas. “These are all great blogging ideas!” Her gasp of surprise was delightful….
Sun, Vegetables and Soap
I started today with a rush, dashing off to the eye doctor and more than a little afraid. My eyesight seems to have been getting worse of late, and I was terrified he would tell me the diabetes was affecting my eyes, even though I’ve been working so hard to keep my blood sugar under…
Hi Lisa,
After our meeting yesterday I realized that I wasn’t subscribed to your email.
Once I was here, I saw the organizational quiz for writers – right up my alley (pun alert!) And I took it.
Although you claim it is wildly inaccurate and unscientific, I do agree with the results: See It.
I am completely lost if I don’t live by check lists and sticky notes in highly visible places. This, of course, could be construed as clutter and crazy by outsiders who aren’t cued into the creative processes that are different for each creative person.
Fun idea – we must talk about that quiz feature as I tried to do one ages ago. I’m sure the plugins and blocks have evolved since then.
Take care and see you soon at our next website planning meeting!

Isn’t it fun? I’m using a tool called H5P for this that you can embed into WordPress or other places. You’ll like it:

There’s a ton that we can do with it!!!
And I’m glad you liked the quiz. I had fun setting it up. So far it has seemed to be pretty accurate for folks. I did a bunch of research on organizational styles and then had fun creating questions that writers would relate to!
