Do you have a vision of helping and inspiring others via the publication of your book?

Self-publishing your book can be overwhelming. The majority of self- publishing companies charge enormous fees and the process is time consuming. Unless you work with a traditional publishing company, after the book is published you as the author are responsible for marketing. Yet working with traditional publishing, the process is that you submit your work to literary agents who then submit your work to the publisher. Unless you are well known, this process can take over a year. Traditional publishers recommend that the author self -publish then build their own platform through self- marketing or paying a marketing company. After the author has established a following, then a traditional publisher will consider you.
The reason we write a book in the first place is because we have a compelling passion to impact the lives of others through our words.
Perhaps you have a strategy, and the tools that you put into a book
would be used as a resource for your clients. Of course, you don’t want to wait for over a year to have your book published. Maybe you have poetry that you want organized into a book. You wrote a novel, or put together health tips.
As an author of 44 self -published books for children, teens, and adults, I understand the journey, and I am here to help you throughout all the stages of the self- publishing process.
