The trials and tribulations of writing a book. There are many. Missed meetings with your editor - usually for very good reasons, such as sickness, family issues, even lack of content to share. Sometimes, the author gets stuck, and even their book coach can't get them started. It takes an act of ... otherworldly note. Oh yes, it happens. We aren't infallible. We have our moments where we can't make things work, also. There are times when the rewrites take so long! I'm talking about very long. Three, four, sometimes five meetings. It gives one agata sometimes. But there are so many wonderful things and reasons to write a book, they outweigh the trials and tribulations every single time. You become a thought leader. If you were one to begin with, you become more of one. Writing a book takes a lot of thought and energy and with it comes knowledge - from your life experiences but also from content you need to research and study. You become a sought after speaker. Yes, you have to put yourself out there first. Unless event planners know you're available and that you've written a book, how are they going to reach out to book you? Be visible and speak up about being able to speak. Podcasts. Another kind of speaking. They keep increasing in number and value. I'm sure there are a lot of podcasts out there that aren't so great, but the ones I've learned about - often right here on LinkedIn - are up and coming, if they have not already arrived. Find a way to be on them. Your credibility increases the moment you say you've written a book. People just flat-out believe you more. This speaks well to those who put the labor into the writing of the book, sharing real expertise and advice, but it sometimes makes it harder for those experts when people who don't take the time or effort to create a stellar product come along and say similar things. The proof is in the pudding, as they say, however. Those who value their reputation produce excellent books (some of them work with us - how about you, are you ready?) because they invest not only time and effort but the dollars and cents needed to work with outstanding professionals in the book and publishing business. Don't let the trials and tribulations scare you away from your book. The one I know you want to write. Let's do it. Let's start soon. The world is waiting to hear your story. It's so unique - isn't it? If you like what you see and are looking to learn more about writing a book, stay up-to-date with our content by following our page. Please. ??

???? ?? ???????????? ???? ???? ?? ???????????? Think about it - reading helps you bring forth your own creativity. Fiction, especially, can spark that creative burst. Reading helps you relax. If you don't believe me, read my husband's book, Read 'Em & Reap, where he showcases the benefits of reading. (available on Amazon) In fact, in that book, he talks about how reading improves both mental and physical health. In my world, reading is what new business owners do to learn how to move forward. They want advice on overcoming obstacles and finding their way. I live to give professionals who want to be successful authors the guidance and support they need to write a remarkable book. Within that 'why' is the fact that I am certain these people eagerly read books to gain the right inspiration and guidance. Therefore, why shouldn't they write them? What might a book written by you look like? Feel like? Imagine holding it in your hand. So many business folks I meet tell me they want to write a book. Here's why they don't: ? Worried about the cost. ? Being afraid even to start. ? Worried about the publishing. ? Being afraid they won't finish. ? Fear of failure - no one will like their book. ? Too busy (I can prove that this is just an excuse). ? Worried about what will or won't happen after the book is done. ? Just worried in general because they know writing a book is a job. A big job. I get it. I get all of that. When I wrote my book, ???????????????? ?????????????????? - ?????????? ?????????????????? ???? ?????????? ????????????, I was not prepared for the next steps. All I did to support it was write a press release. Then I started my Lipsticking blog, and I was interviewed all over because newscasters were astonished by the title. For a short time, I was a bit of a celebrity. And then, life happened. I got busy. I started my own publishing company. If I had been prepared and had a PLAN, I would have created more success for myself. I'm telling you that I left money on the table. There was so much MORE I could have done! You've read about how authors build authority and business; let me show you how. And bring some of your reading - I'd like to know what you consume. ???????????????????? ?? Books teach. ??

If you're in a small business, or if you're an entrepreneur, and you want more business, write a book. Yes, I would say that. I'm a book coach and developmental editor. But here's the deal: I say it because it's true. Writing a book gains you immediate respect, appreciation, and new business. People want to connect to authors. People admire authors because writing a book is something they have always wanted to do but will never achieve. Writing a book establishes leadership and authority. It's a mark of thoughtful leadership - when you write a book to help people learn from your mistakes. Tom Collins, my partner in business and life, wrote a complete blog post about the benefits of writing a book called "10 Ways Writing a Book Builds Business." The link is in the first comment. It's a short read. It's a necessary read for anyone looking to stand out in a crowded field of 'same old, same old.' Master Book Builders works with a small, select number of writers to help them write, polish, edit, tell stories, write well, create a throughline, develop talking points, design the interior and exterior of their books, and talk them off the ledge, sometimes. We're ready to do that for you. Are you ready to become an author this year? It takes time, so think carefully and don't wait until it's too late. Too late means someone else is going to publish your book this year with their name on it. Beat them to the finish line. (read the blog post) ???????????????????? ??

"The Bechdel test (/?b?kd?l/ BEK-d?l),[1] also known as the Bechdel-Wallace test, is a measure of the representation of women in film and other fiction." From Wikipedia, below. This was shared with me by a current client whose book is about her experience as a daughter living with a father who descends into Alzheimer's over a period of years. We talked about the uniqueness of the father-daughter bond and the book includes, as you would expect, the role her mother played not only in the author's life, but in the care of the man she called 'husband.' Rebecca discovered this relevant content on Wikipedia, and since I am all about women and women's voices, it begged to be shared here. It's more representative of fiction and film, but since I believe there should be a good bit of story in nonfiction, I thought it appropriate to share it here. Because, after all, in your journey to success, I have to believe a woman played some role. Ladies, this is for us. "The test asks whether a work features at least two female characters who have a conversation about something other than a man. Some versions of the test also require that those two female characters have names.[2] "A work of fiction passing or failing the test does not necessarily indicate the overall representation of women in the work. Instead, the test is used as an indicator of the active presence (or lack thereof) of women in fiction and to call attention to gender inequality in fiction. "The test is named after the American cartoonist Alison Bechdel, in whose 1985 comic strip Dykes to Watch Out For the test first appeared. Bechdel credited the idea to her friend Liz Wallace and the writings of Virginia Woolf. Originally meant as 'a little lesbian joke in an alternative feminist newspaper,' according to Bechdel,[3] the test became more widely discussed in the 2000s, as a number of variants and tests inspired by it emerged.' _________________________________________________ ??
