The Weekend Edition
 
 


I hope you enjoyed the truly life-changing message I sent you last weekend.

Well, that’s not quite true. Actually, you didn’t get a weekend edition email from me last Saturday because… Well, the truth is that I got too busy and forgot to write it. (I tried to blame my missing message on the BookBaby marketing department. That didn’t go so well.) Editor’s note: No, Steven, it didn’t go so well! ☺

Which makes for an appropriate introduction to today’s message: Finding the time to write. Are there some tips and techniques that can help us all to find quality writing time in an already jam-packed daily schedule?

Author and blogger Norm Schriever contributed a post about how he organizes and manages his writing time. He shares a little about his writing ritual, which involves “rising way too early, freebasing coffee, and playing great tunes on the stereo.” Whatever works! Have a look here.

Here’s another item to add to your schedule: BookBaby’s 2018 Independent Author’s Conference is already on our calendar. Our next event is scheduled for Nov. 2-4 in Philadelphia, and you can sign up for an advance RSVP list that will qualify you for special pricing and access to conference events. Go here to add your name to the list!
 
 
All the best,

The Weekend Edition
 
 

Here’s a great review that was posted on Trustpilot earlier this month:

“I am completely satisfied with my experience at BookBaby. The finished product is a book that looks and feels great. The cover design was fantastic and the formatting makes for a nice looking book. In fact, the bookstore at my church has agreed to carry the book—the manager did not believe that it is a self-published book. She’s never seen one that looked this good!” — Lynn

Lynn made a wise decision to invest in design and formatting. And I’m glad she trusted my team at BookBaby to create a professional-looking book. Some authors try to take on these tasks themselves, but frankly, that’s almost always a huge mistake. Savvy authors know that these are tasks best left to the professionals. BookBaby authors who order our creative services quickly realize the value in working with our experienced team of designers and editors.

Recently I learned that Amazon’s CreateSpace division had decided to end its creative services for authors. I wrote something about it on the BookBaby blog that you can find right here.

BookBaby is committed to offering these important services to self-published authors. Our team of professional editors and designers is on call to help you produce the best book possible. It’s an investment that always pays great dividends!

Want to see more 5-star reviews like Lynn’s? We have a page on our site dedicated to customer reviews and feedback right here.
 
 
All the best,
