I've decided that everyone is trying to become rich and famous by writing a book that came to them. It's a way of finding their voice, but very frustrating because after all the work of writing, editing, and publishing then you WAIT for someone to buy it OR you send your MANUSCRIPT to a publisher or agent and wait for your REJECTION letter or email. The fun part is writing, the difficult part is selling it.
Guess I'll just focus on teaching classes and using my books in my workshops. That's the easiest way and less stressful. I'm not looking to get rich, but only to share my experiences with others hoping to help them in some way. I will be having a BOOK SIGNING on December 7th at 12;30-1:30 pm and a free lecture about DIVORCE at the place I teach AHA Artful Healing Academy 70 N 100 W. You all are invited to come, if you live in St. George, Utah.
Lin, Good luck at your book signing!
ReplyDeleteGood luck, Lin! I can imagine how difficult it is because of the number of people who are now writing and self publishing. I believe persistence is the key. That and a lot of luck.
ReplyDeleteI think you have hit on the answer - use them in your teaching and sell them at a small profit to your students.

Wow Lin... You are an author several times over. I admire you for being willing to put yourself out there. I have 2 of your books and am sure the others are as good. It seems that e-books are the way to go, but I do love a hard copy... Happy Thanksgiving to you... Michelle
