Written a book? Learn how to get it published

Ihave been approached many times by people who ask, “I have written my first book and I worked on it for a really long time, all alone, on my computer, but I’m sure it’s a good one, so what do I do to get it published?”

After sincere words of encouragement, I follow with the advice to take a writing class or join a writing group to be sure your book is the best that it can be. Writing to publish is not the same as writing for a hobby.

Once you are sure you have something worth reading, how do you get your book read? Thousands of people produce a book and get it published every year, but thousands more never find a way to share their manuscript. You need expert advice ASAP. Springville author Ryan Mendenhall is here to save the day! Mendenhall has written a handbook with the enticing title “Selling Well: The 5 Relationships That Experts, Authors & Coaches Use to Sell 1,000 Books in 21 Days.”

His background in marketing, the wellness industry and his own personal journey producing this first book will help anyone who is ready to share their written work digitally. Digital books are an expanding market and may be a good option for first-time authors who aren’t ready for the shark-infested waters of traditional publishing.

In the introduction, Mendenhall quotes Mark Twain: “The secret to getting ahead is getting started.” For most authors, this timeless advice can be the catapult. You’re done with blogging and ready to write a book. Now what?

Mendenhall divides his 133-page digital book into five relationship focuses to guide new authors. This approach encourages and directs – a style that is thought-provoking but also practical. These relationship focuses are: Relationship 1: Your Mindset Relationship 2: Your Message Relationship 3: Your Marketing Relationship 4: Your Members Relationship 5: Your Money “Selling Well” is available on Amazon for just $2.99, so download and start reading.
