What Authors should know about Publishing
Last night’s speaker at VOS - Jerry Simmons was great. He spoke about the business aspects of publishing that Authors should know. He also quoted Nicholas Sparks and his blog about the same subject. http://www.nicholassparks.com/WritersCorner/Business.html It hit home for me that although I’m putting thoughts out to the Universe about contests, book goals, etc.; I haven’t put enough thoughts out there about once I’m doing well, what other things do I want to happen. So I wrote up a few thoughts or affirmations for the Universe regarding the next step after being published. Here they are:
* I will have the right advertising, promotions and publicity surrounding my books.
* What’s happening in the market place and what I’m putting in my books will relate well together (this is so I can make connections with the readers).
* I will not be taken advantage of by a publisher, agent or editor. I will be savvy enough to protect my rights.
* I will be profilic and my reader base will continue to grow and grow.
This is a small example of the wonderful messages I heard last night. Now it’s your turn to come up with some amazing thoughts to send out to the Universe!!!! Isabella
