Really Simple Writing & Publishing

Why This- Why Now? My muse made me write this. Just for you. You're welcome. The point of this was to do a final "brain dump" to get this data out in a single package of data outlining the essential points of a writing system you can follow. And it's been called "concise" and "easy to follow" by my advanced readers. What it doesn't have is a bunch of listicals or authoritative-sounding link-bait. The data that supports this book is in another dozen short books I've written and published on the subject. In this short book, you get the outline and the bare-knuckle opinion of who I think is worth a damn to learn from. Just because I've spent a lot of time and money on courses that weren't worth it, doesn't mean you should have to.

How to Save Time, Earn More, Work Less by Publishing Backwards? The situation that most starting authors have (and I've seen the same thing you've run into) is: How the hell do you get from here to there? You hear and (are constantly told) about these outrageously successful authors. But only a very small few percent of people actually achieve that. If you want to be successful you've got to study success. What I found by studying all these guys that are making six- and seven-figures as an author is that most of them have been starting out with books and ending up with courses. The beginning author, though, has to spend a lot of time and money they don't have in order to do that. So most authors fail to make a livable income. And as if we don't have enough problems, how is it a solution to work backwards? Book as an Idea Container. Let's go back to basics. Books are an idea container. They aren't just an eBook, a paperback, and so on. The one set of content is pushed out through all these different versions: eBooks, paperbacks, hardbacks, audio books, audio CDs, and also -courses. The great part about that is courses sell the books and the books sell the courses. The Sensible Approach That Few If Any Use. Here's the secret: 1) record the course, 2) transcribe the audio, 3) edit it into your book. All types of books. You've got the video, audio, text, and graphics. So turn around and publish that course and also every version you can. Why not? Too simple, right? Also mostly unknown is that you can do this from your own home-office without having to buy expensive programs or services. How can you save time, work less, and earn more? And still publish great books?

Becoming Wealthy from writing isn't hard. But it isn't being taught. Not in any schooling, and most of the current texts and courses are scams. Even if those steps worked for the those authors, that doesn't mean they'll work for you. How you see yourself as a writer, what surrounds you that reminds you and tells others of your writing success, what you consider you have to achieve to become wealthy - these are questions you have to ask yourself. And then start looking for answers. This book was written as the overview, introduction, and outline for a series of basic courses based on trusted perennial-selling classics - which enable you to become wealthy from your writing. Using time-proven methods. Only about one in three million actually earn a livable income from their writing. And that's in the U. S. where it's relatively easy and inexpensive to self-publish your own books. But just making a living doesn't mean you are or aren't wealthy. Of course, there are other reasons for writing. And there are at least 12 different kinds of true wealth - and only one of those involves money. The author of this book has written and published a few hundred books in the last 14 years. All at little cost. And his life is wealthy in many of the ways hinted above, a lifestyle in the lap of luxury that cannot be bought with any amount of money. The reason this book is coming to you now is simple - to save you the time and effort of having to do all this study for yourself, and go through all the mistakes and long learning curves. Not to mention the many courses and texts out there which are more expensive scams than useful. You can have any amount of wealth you set your mind to. And how that is done is explained in the first third of this book. The last two-thirds tell you how to train yourself to be a productive writer, and then to amass the wealth you deserve. This book is only the barest introduction to an extensive body of research work, which you can start today with the steps of this simple book. It's always been up to you to make any success you've experienced. What wealth you have right now is the sum of your efforts so far. This book can jumpstart your progress toward the wealth you feel you deserve. Starting right now, with whatever you have at hand. Your wealth is waiting, trying to show up in your life.

Hidden in the book you're writing right now is a way to get more royalties. Deep in the heart of the ever-growing self-publishing jungle, there's a profitable underserved market which is not easily discovered. It sits in a clearing by itself, much like a massive stone temple rising above the forest....A temple with some gold-filled rooms. We saw such an expedition hinted at by other well-known writers who began to earn 6-figure incomes over the last couple of years with fiction and non-fiction short story books. But they never really explored the opportunities this area has. In carefully re-tracing their paths, it showed me the turns they didn't take. A three-year test of the various maps and suggestions by publishing trail guides found many dead-end, false trails. But those maps that actually led to riches show that anyone can follow these and spend less time and money while writing books that can be published through a "write once, publish several ways" strategy This path told more about how to really use short reads as a business strategy. How to cement those 6-figures that other writers reported. What I've discovered even accelerates their progress, leveraging more profit from less writing, but still winding up with more salable books each year than they did. There's a long-ignored group of readers which know the value of keeping books around to read when they can. They have been called Coffee Break Readers. But have been around, reading, since books first got published. They're anyone who has limited time to read for whatever reason. Their commute, their lunch break, while waiting at airports... These people aren't stuck into a certain author, it's more like the certain type of entertainment they want: short stories which they can read in their available time. Successfully writing for these readers has one underlying simple idea, that you can spend two months writing and editing an 80,000-word book and sell it for 4.99 on Kindle. Or - you could publish eight 10,000-word books and publish them for 2.99, then come right back to offer the box set for another 4.99. Which approach would make you more royalties? If you use your books to generate email subscribers, which approach would generate more leads? How about value? Which would you rather buy - one book at 4.99 or a box set of 8 books for 4.99? But you've written the same amount of text in both cases, spent roughly the same amount of time writing (although more on covers and descriptions) for possibly four times the royalties or even more... And then there's the point that there are far fewer books in these categories - particularly since the "conventional wisdom" says that longer books sell more. This is an update of Short Story Publishing - but without the hype and wrong turns.
