About the author

Tiffany Shand is a writing mentor, professionally trained copy editor and copy writer who has been writing stories for as long as she can remember. Born in East Anglia, Tiffany still lives in the area, constantly guarding her work space from the two cats which she shares her home with.
She began using her pets as a writing inspiration when she was a child, before moving on to write her first novel after successful completion of a creative writing course. Nowadays, Tiffany writes urban fantasy and paranormal romance, as well as nonfiction books for other writers, all available through Amazon and on her own website.
Tiffany’s favourite quote is ‘writing is an exploration. You start from nothing and learn as you go’ and it is armed with this that she hopes to be able to help, inspire and mentor many more aspiring authors.
When she has time to unwind, Tiffany enjoys photography, reading and watching endless box sets. She also loves to get out and visit the vast number of castles and historic houses that England has to offer.

- Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2017Here is my review of Building Your Author Platform by Tiffany Shand:
Building Your Author Platform gives great, practical advice to new and seasoned authors, alike. Tiffany Shand gleans information from her own experiences as an author and relays the do's and don'ts of creating a platform. Her suggestions on website/blog platforms and social media usage are great tips that all authors should review. The advice given also applies to bloggers regarding whether or not to use a free or paid blog/website.
I actually had the original blog I created in 2011 shut down without notice and without explanation by the free site I used. I'm still trying to decide if I want to pay for a self-hosted blog/website. Blogging and book reviewing isn't a job for me so having to pay for a website that doesn't make me any money just doesn't appeal. Anyway, her sound advice on website/blog platforms is not something to take lightly. I really did lose everything (including my email account).
Building your author platform is important for marketing purposes, to create value for your books, whether fiction or non-fiction, and to pull together readers who want what you offer. Like the author states "Your platform is the bridge between your books and your reader" (Shand, 2017). Go forth and create your platform, you'll be glad you did.
I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 1, 2016In Building Your Author Platform, author Tiffany Shand talks about her journey as an author, and the importance of having an author platform to sell your books, even as a fiction author. The book is a short read, only 28 pages, but it offers valuable information, and some helpful tips.
I would recommend this book to all authors, the ones who already have an author platform but want to expand it, and author who are just starting out. I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review.
