I wish I’d had this advice for my first book, and have certainly picked out some gold nuggets to help with the next. The book pitch section is particularly helpful for greater clarity on exactly why you are writing, and who for. This resource book written by an expert immersed in the publishing industry is clearly written, very practical and a ‘must have’ for publishing and promoting at least your first few books.

Thank you, Ann, for writing this book. So many people say ‘I should write a book’, but so few actually do it. This means that the world is missing out on a whole lot of knowledge that entrepreneurs and business people have accumulated over their lifetime. With your book, the insurmountable task becomes eminently possible.
