The Savvy Authors Guide to Passwords

Novel Marketing

Being an author requires you to have hundreds of online accounts for different software and services. Websites such as Amazon, ConvertKit, Publisher Rocket, Patreon, K-lytics, Bookvault, AuthorMedia.social, AuthorsXP, BookBub, Kickstarter, Teachable, Bluehost, WordPress, Grammarly, and Plottr (to name a few) all require a username and password.

But what if there was a simple way to eliminate your password problems? There is!
In this week’s episode you’ll learn

• Four password mistakes to avoid
• Which tools provide password security
• My recommendation (which has changed in recent years)

If you’re ready to eliminate your password problems, listen in or check out the blog post version of this episode to find password peace of mind.
