Solid list with a broad range from beginning to write to marketing it. I have read and enjoyed your 30-Day Book Marketing Challenge book.
ReplyThank you, Lisa! Appreciate you reading and commenting. I have many more books on my shelf, yet these are the ones that truly ‘speak’ to me. And thank you for the feedback on my 30-Day book. Adding updates now for 2019!
ReplyNaturally, I have both of your books, HOW TO BEST OPTMIZE BLOG POSTS FOR SEO and BadRedhead MEDIA 30-DAY BOOK MARKETING CHALLENGE: How to energize your sales in a month. I also have Stephen King’s book, Cameron’s THE RIGHT TO WRITE and THE ARTIST’S WAY. I have the books of the “usual suspects” that you mentioned and many others.
Books I would add as must haves are:
BIG MAGIC by Elizabeth Gilbert
THE ART OF WAR FOR WRITERS by James Scott Bell
THE WAR OF ART by Steven Pressfield
THE WRITER’S MENTOR by Cathleen Roundtree
I plan to purchase Shulman’s THE WRITER’S ROADMAP:PAVING THE WAY TO YOUR IDEAL WRITING LIFE, and I also want to pick-up THE AUTHOR’S GUIDE TO WORKING WITH BOOK BLOGGERS by Drozdovich.
Happy New Year, Rachel!
ReplyThank you for sharing these gems, Donna! I love THE WAR OF ART by Pressfield. Excellent addition. I don’t have the others. Will add and read. Leigh and Barb are not only personal mentors but also my go-to’s when I need inspiration and help professionally. I can’t say enough about their expertise and practicality for writers, especially for indie writers.
ReplyThank you. I shall definitely take a look.
Things I’d like to know?
What royalty payments etc work.
Best selling strategies?
Hi Sue,
feel free to peruse my site, books, and blog posts to answer your questions. Thanks for visiting!
ReplyThanks for this. I have one or two of these and will look out the others. When I started writing the Stephen King book was the most useful thing I read.
ReplyGreat references. I have a few of these will check out some of the others. One I would add to the list is Jane Friedman’s the Business of Being a Write. It’s a great reference on the different aspects of the publishing industry.
ReplyI have read The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron and am her number one fan. It’s because of her Morning Pages that I realized I could write! I will definitely look up the book you suggested. 🙂
I also loved Elizabeth Gilbert’s Big Magic. It’s another book that I read whenever I feel lost.
To this list I would add Elizabeth Gilbert’s “Big Magic” which is chock full of insight on finding and not needing inspiration for writing. Anne Lamott’s last name has no “e” at the end, just a minor typo.
