Writers first need to understand that a strong, long-lasting platform grows out of your body of work. It all starts with the writing itself; in fact, being a prolific writer can be an aspect of an author's platform.

Second, while you can learn a lot of about platform by observing other authors' careers and reading guidebooks, every author's platform is as unique as a fingerprint. We each have different backgrounds, resources, networks, and strengths to draw upon.

Each author must consider what they can do on a long-term basis that is sustainable for them, that fits with their goals and standards of success.
