Origins ~ The Write Way

I'd been writing and getting my books published (most of them were trad published; a few were self-published) for about ten years when I wrote THE WRITE WAY. 

I'd been teaching writer's workshops and facilitating a writer's group, so I decided that a book on that subject would be a good idea.

And so, Write Way was born to share the ins and outs of writing a book and getting it published.

Book of the Month ~ March

The ultimate, inside guide to getting your novel or nonfiction book published.

Have you always wanted to write a book? Are you in the process of writing your book? Have you written a book and are wondering how to get it published?If you’re looking for a “how-to” that will guide you every step of the way through writing your book, putting together a book proposal, finding a publisher or an agent, or self-publishing, look no further. You can turn your dream of writing a book into a reality. 

Packed full of encouragement, ideas, and inspiration to get you going and keep you moving, THE WRITE WAY guides you on a three-part journey, through listening to the muse inside your mind and writing your book, to putting together a book proposal that will get you an offer and a publishing contract for your nonfiction book or novel, to self-publishing your book if that's the path you choose.

From finding the right publisher or agent, to negotiating a book contract, to formatting both an ebook and a print book, and seeing your book on the bookstore shelf... this book has it all. It clearly explains what to do and how to do it, and what NOT to do. Inside these pages you'll learn how to:

• Write from your heart and find your voice;
• Discover the secret that all writers know;
• Create a workable outline and concept for your book;
• Do market research to target appropriate publishers for your book or find the right literary agent;
• Develop a promotion and marketing plan that will convince editors your book is destined to become a bestseller;
• Understand and negotiate a book contract;
• Credential your book with an ISBN if you are self-publishing; and
• Brand your books and choose a publisher name.
  

If you choose to self-publish, either as a first choice or a last resort, this book can help guide you into and through the mystifying maze of self-publishing, offering the basics to get you started. If you have an entrepreneurial spirit, like to be in control of and in charge of everything, publishing your own book may be the “write” path for you.
