Interview with Josh Funk | Writing for Children 156 0

INTERVIEW WITH JOSH FUNK

Josh Funk writes silly stories and somehow tricks people into publishing them as books—such as the Lady Pancake & Sir French Toast series and How to Code a Sandcastle. Josh is also known for his expertise in social media, building an author platform before he was published, and connecting with the writing (and reading) community.

We discuss:

  • where to find Josh online.
  • how he built his author platform.
  • what he finds most effective.
  • why you need a platform before you have a published book.
  • what to put on your website if you don't have a book published yet!
