437 – Overcoming Social Media Fears for Writers Part 1

In this episode of Writing at the Red House, Kathi Lipp is joined by social media expert Tonya Kubo to delve into the often daunting world of social media for writers, especially those juggling Christian values with the online realm. Kathi and Tonya bring to light the common fears of judgment, privacy concerns, and perfectionism that many authors face when building their presence on platforms like Facebook and Instagram. Together, they share relatable anecdotes and sprinkle humor into the conversation while emphasizing that imperfections are, indeed, part of the journey.
Listeners will leave with a sense of relief knowing they are not alone in their hesitations and are encouraged to tune in again next week for practical solutions on how to overcome these barriers and fully engage with their audience.
