May 16 Critical Steps to Writing and Publishing Your Book- Posted by Carol Pierce

Are you writing a book but not sure about the steps to take or how to get it published? Discover the secrets to what really works in creating a book that enhances your professional credibility and helps raise your visibility as an expert in your field. Find out how to avoid the common mistakes that may cost you hundreds of dollars and unnecessary frustration. Get answers to your specific questions and see concrete examples of what has led authors to creating books which sell themselves, including one author who sold more than 500 copies in less than 3 weeks of her book being released without her actively marketing it!

Register today for this interactive workshop filled with content which meets your specific needs. Yes, you will be applying the information you gain to your own book during the workshop, regardless of its topic or where you are in the book writing/publishing process.
