I can't even count how many people have told me "When I write my book..." Seems like everyone's got a book in them, right? If you can identify, I urge you to stop dreaming and start doing. There is nothing like seeing your story, your words, your heart, in print. Nothing.
Most people are overwhelmed at the thought of writing a book, let alone publishing one. Traditional publishing is still a viable option for some, but for most, self-publishing has become not just an option, but an amazing opportunity.
When I made the decision to self-publish, I was terrified. Would people judge me? Would my book even sell? Would I be proud of it, or still caught up in the stigma that no publisher took a chance on me?
Making the decision to self-publish my book was one of the best decisions of my life.
But it didn't come easily. I spent years researching the industry, talking to authors who had taken the leap, reading articles, talking to editors at traditional publishing houses, publicists, literary agents (in fact I had one of my own while we were shopping the book).
My hard work paid off and my book was successful. Immediately, writers were approaching me for advice on how to pull it off. Where to begin. I decided to take my life coaching skills and combine them with my self-publishing experience and offer help to writers who want to get that book out there, but need a little push.
Maybe you need help outlining your idea. Maybe you're halfway through, but need a boost getting it finished. Maybe you've written the book, but need help finding an editor or a designer to help you fine tune it and bring it to life. Maybe your book is out there, but you have no idea how to market it.
Maybe you just want to talk to someone, one on one, who's done it.
