Before You Write Your Very First Word...

There are a whole lot of questions and other considerations, besides the actual craft of writing, that need to be understood first before a single word is written, before a single key is struck.




Most new writers face a huge problem...

They really don't know what they don't know.




This book acts as a primer to get you thinking about different possibilities available to you and the consequences of many of the decisions you will be faced with.




Having written, created and published more than 40 books under a number of pen names, I would have given my right arm (figuratively) to have understood some basic practical concepts about writing, publishing and the book industry in general before I ever started. These are the things I wish I had known at the beginning of my writing career. Things that no one seems to point out to would-be writers.




You will not find any dramatic promises that you will have a bestseller on your hands. Only that you will have the knowledge to start your writing and publish your work in a way that is best suited to you.




"...punches way above its page count."




This book covers practical key concepts you need to clearly understand. Questions that you need to answer. Decisions that you need to make before you even think of writing your very first word. These become the guides for you to follow and your overall road markers along your writing journey.
