Savvy Business Skills for Writers:
Nuts and Bolts
by Renee Knowles
Learn the business end of writing
Perfect for writers of all levels
Savvy Business Skills for Writers: Book 1--Nuts and Bolts will include:
Supercharge Your Career: 5 Steps to Creating a Dynamic Career Plan
Networking and Promoting on a Budget
How to Network Brilliantly at a Writer's Conference & Beyond
Working Smart: Time Management Skills Every Writer Needs (using the PLOT system: Prepare, Lay Out, Organize and Track)
No Fear Public Speaking: Even Introverts Can Speak With Confidence!
Agents and editors at conferences often speak about how they feel the one area many writers can improve on is the business end. And, as an editor myself, I've noticed many authors are not as comfortable with the business end as the writing side.
This series will help you find your way.
"Savvy Business Skills for Writers: Nuts and Bolts, is a book that every writer MUST have! Not only is Ms. Knowles' material extremely helpful, the way she writes made me feel like she was sitting right beside me. She really drew me in, captured my attention, and got me moving on the right track. Being a writer, I don't always find myself excelling on the business end of things, but with this book, I feel a lot more confident. Not only does Ms. Knowles present a great wealth of knowledge, she makes learning fun!"--Eliza Knight, historical romance author and owner of the History Undressed blog.
I'm a long-time entrepreneur, trained image coach, and workshop facilitator. I have long been in the business world and have helped many authors find their bearings in this challenging publishing business. I've written several articles on the business side of writing and often give presentations and online classes as well.
"Ms. Knowles’ common sense approach to mapping out a thorough business plan is a must have for every successful author!”--Juliet Burns, Harlequin and Red Sage author.
