Blog of the Week: The Creative Penn

Friday, July 18, 2014


This week I want to look at the blog/website The Creative Penn, which is written by indie author Joanna Penn

owned and maintained by Joanna Penn 

What this blog is about

This website focuses on four main areas: writing, self-publishing, marketing, and entrepreneurship.

The topics covered in the blog include:

  • author entrepreneur 
  • creativity 
  • eBooks and technology 
  • marketing and promotion 
  • publishing options 
  • writing

It's for writers and authors who want to self-publish but either don't know how or don't have enough confidence to try. TheCreativePenn.com has been voted one of the Top 10 sites for writers three years running. The blog features both a podcast and YouTube video series.

Watch Joanna's Welcome to The Creative Penn video on YouTube.

She also drives home the point that authors and writers ARE entrepreneurs.
