I'm glad I came across this article. I hadn't thought about linking other authors in the footer. However, I have tweeted other authors work and posted other authors on my Linkedin page. It's a little hard to pin their posts to Pinterest because many authors use unsplash and unsplash photos don't do too well on pinterest. It would be like not pinning it at all.
Justiss Goode here on Medium, kind of posed the same question, She calls it Karma...
She wanted to know why other writers weren't engaging and supporting each other.
Now, why they don't link other authors in the footer.
1. They may not know about it.
2. Writers are taught to keep their cards close to the vest.
3. Some writers are very competitive.
Well, I am more than willing to do it from here on out. It won't hurt.
Sorry this turned into an article 🤓.
