Book Your Cruise: Write Your Book Jan 24, 2017

by Donna Kozik

( 9 )

$1.99

When going on a cruise, you look for a book you can read...but how about a book you can *write?*

This speedy yet info-packed Kindle read gives cruise goers information about how to write a book while sailing the high seas or drifting along a river cruise. It’s written by a long-time book coach who shows people how to get books done fast and easy to use as a “big business card.”

Now she applies her “landlubber” ideas and processes for book writing that can be applied while cruising.

*Part One: Pre-Board Prep—Ready Yourself *

This section shows you how to prepare for your “book writing while cruising” adventure. It discusses books and materials to bring and shows you how to get your mind ready to write.

*Part Two: All Aboard—Cruise & Write*

Next discover the elements of a book and techniques for getting started in writing. This section also includes four “short and powerful” book structures so you can start visualizing how to start organizing and creating your content.

*Part Three: Disembark & Publish—Finetune & Print*

This section shows you how to prepare your manuscript for publishing and also details the pros and cons of self-publishing and pursuing a traditional publisher.

Says the author: I eat, breathe and sleep book writing. I think everyone should author a book. The good news is that it’s so easy now. Gone are the days when only academics, celebrity authors and people with loads of money can line the shelves of bookstores. Traditional publishers no longer have the ultimate say about who will see their work published and who won’t. Instead, print-on-demand technology lets you just upload and order.

Worried about the cost? Don’t be. You can publish a softcover book without taking out a second mortgage on your house. How inexpensive is it? Try five bucks a copy, give or take, depending on your page count. And you only have to order one. Not one thousand or more, like the days of yore, when boxes of books doubled for living room furniture.

Thanks to social media, you can promote and sell your book easier than ever. Even Amazon wants to sell your book. They love authors, even those who self-publish. (Or, as it’s said these days, authors who decide to go the route of “indie publishing.”)

Most of all, you have something to say, and a book is a great way to say it. It’s the “universal symbol” of expertise and credibility. Even in these days of Twitter handles and Facebook pages, having a book is respected and makes you respectable. It gives you an opportunity to share your message that will live on past “likes.” It will be around for a long, long time. It's also proof that you are here on this big blue marble and you have something to share. And it positions you as a thought leader in your field or among your friends.

They say that four out of five people want to write a book "someday," but, for most, that "someday" never comes. If you’re convinced you should be an author too, let’s make make today the day you get started.

It was a crazy idea—bring a group of people together to write an inspirational book about success. In a weekend.

If there were 20 people contributing, the editor would be happy. More than 70 did.

They worked with the suggested themes of career, finances and relationships—and were asked to keep entries to 200 words or less. (More difficult than it sounds.) They embraced the challenge to provide readers with mini-doses of inspiration—whether read in one sitting or one before bed each night.

They submitted their pieces within a tight timeline. They took part in a two-hour editing marathon and watched as their writing was reviewed and polished to shine brighter.

They cheered with every update and marveled at their own ability.

These authors are success stories in themselves.

Now we share with you the results of that weekend: the inspirational essays, narratives and insights about success in relationships, career, finances and life. Our intention is this book will empower and uplift you, too, to be your better self and let your success shine.

Contributing authors include Dan Murray; Norma Bonner Elmore, Ed.D.; Dr. Klara Gubacs-Collins; John A. Williams, MSc; Carol Stockall, MD; Shona Battersby; Bonnie D.

Talking About TED Talks: TED, TEDx & SUE Talk Preparation Ideas for Authors, Coaches, Consultants & Entrepreneurs Mar 13, 2018

by Donna Kozik

( 7 )

$2.99

Wondering if you have what it takes to do a TED Talk? This short and focused book shares information about how to meet TED (and kissing cousins TEDx and SUE). It covers what the essence of the talks are all about and details the nomination form to apply to do a TED talk, with practical insight into what organizers are looking for. A bonus report inside shares how to turn your talk (TED or otherwise) into a book, including a timeline and ways to make it easy on yourself.

Brought from the award-winning author who has conducted more than 60 Write a Book in a Weekend events, this "transcript training" (because it stems from a popular webinar) gives aspiring speakers an introduction to TED and other speaking and presentation tips. Note: the author is not associated with TED.com or the TED organization—she's simply an interested observer.
