Need some great writing/publishing advice?

I'm not being compensated in any way, shape, or form, I just simply liked this book so much that I'm dedicating this entire post to it.

Why it would be worth your time? It's written by two successful authors, one a social media guru/author and the author of the bestselling novel Pay it Forward, which was made into a movie starring Helen Hunt. Okay, now who doesn't want advice from them?

Click on the title to go to Amazon to check it out for yourself

How to be a Writer in the E-Age and Keep your E-Sanity

Since reading this book I now have a strategy for my writing career, and clear steps that I plan to take to get there.

The book covers everything you could possibly want to know about writing and publishing. I learned about writing, great starts, blogging and social media strategies, how to view rejections, self publishing, movie rights, and so much more! It is available for a limited time for $2.99, which I promise you will be the best $3 you'll spend if you're a writer. It helped clear so much confusion that I had about the changing world of books.

It also had a shout out to blogger/author Alex J Cavanaugh and used his blog as an example of how to build a platform in your genre. Congrats Alex! Click on his name to link to his amazing sci-fi blog.

Happy reading!

    I downloaded that a couple weeks ago but haven't had a chance to look at it. Guess I'm going to do that now.

    Congrats on your 100th follower!!!

    I downloaded the book, as you know, and started reading then stopped. I do this with all my ebooks because I don't have an e-reader (reading on the computer). Getting an e-reader is on my must-do-right-now list so that I can read all the wonderful books I've downloaded. Thanks for recommending the book again. :)

      You're welcome! and I hear you. I read it on my computer too, and an e-reader is on my wish list for my anniversary.
