The Emotions of Publishing a Book

Since last Fall, when Guerrilla Publishing was released, I've helped a growing number of authors realize their dream of being published. I've discovered that the process of turning someone's manuscript into a bound edition is tremendously emotional. How people handle this surge of creative passion varies as much as the titles of the books I've helped create.

Coming from an artistic background, I find working with passionate, emotional people exciting and authentic. It's true, I have had clients so passionate we end up yelling, like crazy Italians, on the phone sometimes. But because I know where I am leading them, to get their book published, and I understand both the frustration and the joy they feel, I honor my clients' depth and breadth needed to find their voice. Our culture doesn't seem to value passion much, which is why artists, singers, authors et al are so needed.

If you need some help getting your project off the ground, consider a coaching session with me. For $99 you get a signed copy of the book and to pick my brain for an hour. By the end of the hour you will not only be highly entertained, but you will have a much clearer picture of how to accomplish your goal of publishing, and an idea of the resources you'll need to do it. Then, if you decide you want my help further, we can go from there. The cost of the coaching session will be subtracted from the price of the full package.

Otherwise, you'll be good to go!

Whatever you do, keep listening to your voices and finding ways to be heard. Whatever you do, DO SOMETHING! Intuitive action is the most powerful form of creation!
