If you’re blanking on the type of content you should post – don’t fret. We’ve got you covered! Below, we’ll dive into easy content ideas for authors to post this summer.
Let’s begin!
A Day In The Life Of An Author
It’s not uncommon for authors to feel like they need to have intricate content; however, you would be surprised that natural content typically does just fine with engagement. In fact, viewers enjoy authenticity. This is why many people enjoy seeing posts that show glimpses into the life of an author.
What to post:
- Your writing setup. This could be your office, a laptop at a coffee shop, or a pen and paper.
- What your day off from writing looks like.
- Behind-the-scenes photos of a book event you attend.
Short Quotes
Quotes are a great filler for your social media feed that your audience will enjoy. The quotes could be a line from a book or a quote that speaks to you.
Engage With Your Audience By Asking Questions
You can’t go wrong with asking your followers questions. This helps boost engagement and gets conversations on your page started. The questions should be simple and straight to the point. Some sample questions to ask your followers include:
- “What book is on your summer reading list?”
- “When you travel, do you bring your Kindle or a physical book?”
- “Do you typically read more or less in the summer?”
