For as long as I can remember magic has been a part of my life.
I’m not talking about the ‘make-an-elephant-disappear’ or ‘pull-the-rabbit-from-the-hat’ type of magic – although that’s cool – I’m talking about the magic of relationships.
Like when you kiss a soulmate for the first time, or hang out with friends and bond over yummy pizza and a rom-com movie. Or when you break up with someone you cared about and got relationship advice from your parents while your heart mended.
That type of magic.
And coming from a family of five, I grew up competing with my brothers for computer time and video games (as long as they were of the driving variety!). Gamer girl and tech geek in my family. Did I mention I had a competitive streak?
Following university, I fell into many varied office-based jobs – insert boring title here! No job ever filled me with passion, so I looked to the web for something that would provide a challenge and a way to replace my day job!
I found a great community and training site called Location Rebel, where I could learn everything I needed to make my own way in the world. I started there in August 2011, by June 2012, I’d quit my day job and moved into full time freelance writing!
With some of the expertise I gained from working for 15+ years on real life writing projects (read, boring administration jobs!), I founded my own company, determined to bring what I had on offer to similarly minded people who were still in the dark regarding freelance writing and making a successful career out of it, but in a meaningful way.
I’ve been called many things, some not worth mentioning here, but really, I’m just good at connecting with people. Showing people that they can do this or anything they put their mind to.
I've always wanted to get into the ebook writing game but thought it was too hard or complicated to do so (and to do it successfully). This book breaks down the steps practically in a simplified way that makes me feel like I can get started today with little to no money down.
This book is good for writers learning to write an eBook. For someone like me, quite a bit of it I already knew. However, I did learn a few new things in regard to launching. I will read that part more carefully a second time and use it when I release a new book.
I like how Cartwright divided the steps into chapters. At the end of each chapter, she provides a checklist of what you learned in that chapter and what you should do before you move on to the next chapter. She gives you good ideas of both free and paid items to get your book published via links usually. Some of those I agree with, and others I don’t. For instance, she recommends Fiverr for getting a cover design. Unless I know the person does an excellent job, I wouldn’t go too cheap on my cover. In case you don’t know what Fiverr is, it’s a website where you can get things done for five dollars. Sometimes, though, you do pay more as the seller becomes established on the website. Gigs, as they are called, can be more than five dollars.
Cartwright is good at motivating you as the writer. She encourages you to write every day and find a partner who will keep you on task. If you can’t find one, she gives you her email and tells you she will find you one. What author does that? No one else I can ever remember reading.
I am a visual person so I like Cartwright’s graphics in her eBook. One is the writing process, and the other one is the launching schedule. Both of these would be very easy to print out and hang some place where you can see it each and every day. Now that motivates me!
I did find this book very useful, and full of extremely worthwhile links resources and instructions that are completely missing in less practical books on writing. Some of these are absurd in their lack of real practical advice. This is definitely not the case with Lise' book. I will use it as a reference and refer to it often. I just don't like the connotation of a "hustle". In my day that had a most unsavory reputation...
The author provides a great step by step approach to learning to publish for extra income. The resources given are well-researched too. Even though I have experience, I still managed to learn something new. Good book!
Totally love this book. Great advice on everything Kindle related. If you were to wanting to make a little (or a lot!) money on the side then you should follow this book's plan. Simple straightforward and definitely very useful!
