Ready to launch?

Doing that final edit? About to query? Trying to stay sane on sub? Planning your launch reading/ party? And—have you heard this dreaded question from your publisher: “How robust is your social media presence?”

We’ve got you! Blazers are ALL writers, so we know how to help in every stage of the writer’s life, from pre-pub to performance. Let us make things easy—and fun!

What we offer

BEFORE IT’S SOLD:

Editing: assessing your book for market readiness and providing literary strategy to get it there.

Query writing: that first step in getting your manuscript past the goalkeepers to agents.

Emotional support animals: We’ll help keep you sane while you’re submitting to agents—and while your agent is submitting to editors.

Social media presence: yes, you need to do this yesterday! We’ll help you figure out how to do this so it’s actually a joy.

AFTER IT’S SOLD:

Website: an author’s website is a calling card, a one-stop shop for readers to find out abbout you and your books. Blaze designers will build your site.

Social media marketing: we’ll help you expand your existing platform (or create one!) and plan specific strategy to carry you through the months to launch and the month of on-sale, when social media is most important.

Content creation: We’ll create graphics for you and write captions that meet with your approval (FYI: nothing we do is ever ever created by AI!).

DIY: We’ll teach you how to do this yourself and how to maintain /amplify your presence in a way that feels organic.

Online event coaching: we’ll school you in tech, lighting and background, personal appearance, and maybe most usefully, what NOT to do!

Event hosting: from book club to bookstore event, we’ll host your online event for you, on secure channels like Zoom Webinar or Streamyard, so you can connect and do your author thing without doing more than clicking on a link!

Something we left out? Let us know what you need and it shall be done!
