What 3 Ways Can Your Book Change Lives Immediately?

One simple line from this exceptional book got my mind moving: "The real dough is outside the cookie cutter." "Yes," I thought, "that is true - and let's see how these ideas can help me to see and create there." I learned quickly how to think like a guerilla - new, inclusive, big, follow through, way out and GIVING. YES! Simple to apply - and best of all, I can apply these ideas without spending a lot of money. Yes, I will spend time and energy learning... and it is time and energy I will be able to invest in each book that comes through my pen and into published form. This is a large volume with lots of ideas you can implement for free. You can pick and choose from the wide menu to apply to your promotional campaign. I saw one fiction writer who said, "I can't use these ideas!" and I wonder - "Is that writer thinking outside the cookie cutter?"

Required reading for authors

As the author of 24 books which enjoy a worldwide circulation in excess of a million and a half copies and whose books have been translated into 37 languages, I recommend Guerilla Marketing for Writers to any author who aspires to success. If this book had existed twelve years ago, my income would be several times what it is today. I would have avoided numerous expensive mistakes because I would have more realistic expectations of who should do what in publishing.
