When a reader and Facebook friend, Louise St, posted on my Facebook author page that I should have a street team, I researched other authors’ teams and discovered that:

• A street team is for enthusiastic readers who want to talk about, and to, a favourite author.
• They want to be the first to hear news, and help both author and publisher by spreading the word about special offers, awards shortlistings and competitions.
• A street team harnesses the enthusiasm of readers.
• Truthfully, a street team can be anything you want it to be.

There’s a private Facebook group for Team Sue Moorcroft members and I posted there to ask what people like about being members of Team Sue Moorcroft. Here are a few of the comments:

Helen: [It’s] great being in the team as we are asked to contribute to character names for forthcoming books

Ferne: I joined as I love Sue’s books and feel part of a family

Barbara: I love having the insight into how Sue produces her wonderful books

Christine: I enjoy being part of Sue’s Street Team as she keeps us up to date with her research

Mick: The chance to hear about Sue’s WIP’s, snippets on her research, naming of characters, being able to support an awesome author and friend

The team gives me a warm glow whenever I think about it.

Thank you to each and every team member.
