Your audience and your community aren't the same thing. Your audience is your fans, readers and followers, but your community is the group of people who show up to bond over shared interests and ideas.
In this episode, Lauren & Chelsea go beyond the importance of community for authors and creators. We discuss the practicalities of hosting your own community, recognizing when to foster organic growth instead of trying to force engagement, and finding the value even in failed attempts at shifting from audience to community.
