No matter where you are on your journey to write an extraordinary book, just follow the road signs to take you to your destination.

The business side of writing books

If you are an author who hopes to sell your books, you are also an entrepreneur. In this section, you will learn how to set up your solo business and run it from home; take on and balance the demanding roles of author, business manager, and marketer; master new technology and social media; select the right business advisors; and most important, run a successful business as an author-entrepreneur.
