Mur Lafferty of I Should Be Writing

You know, you don't have to do anything. Really. There are choices. There are consequences. There is the lesson and there is the obligatory trip-up. I often tell folks you don't have to commit to a video series. If you just want to try one video that is ok. If three is your limit, go for it. Or stop.

If you don't want to create video book trailers, don't. Yeah, if your heart isn't in it let it go, let it flow.

Mur Lafferty is a author and podcaster. She has a site called The Muirvers and another called I Should Be Writing. Good stuff to be found no matter where you land.



My point in posting this video is that being yourself, being honest is what is going to save us from the dregs. If it is not working for you there are options like trying again or dumping the sucker.

Mur is right by the way. 90% of book trailers suck. Or on the positive side it is a potential market waiting for a genus to transform it.

Women's Media Center - Our Voices Recorded

I will tell anyone, anytime that the value of women speaking out cannot be ignored. If mainstream media continues to filter us out then we must do everything we can to be seen and heard.

This is a video from the Women's Media Center.



The Women's Media Center create their own advocacy activities, create media and train other women on how to do the same.
