Here are the fun nuggets from our
interview:
Fun nugget #1: There is nothing sexy about being hungry
Fun nugget #2: Be on the lookout for folks that have made
money
Fun nugget #3: Create some juicy affirmations about your writing
life (and say it 25 times a day!)
Fun nugget #4: Turn your affirmations into actions (as you
pray, move your feet)
Fun nugget #5: Your “magic morning” can start whenever you start to
take action
Fun nugget #6: We have to be consistent with our writing
practice
Fun nugget #7: Treat your book like a business
Sub-nuggets under treating your book like a
business:
1. Go FIRST where most books are sold (Amazon)
2. Make sure that your advanced readers are your target market (so
that Amazon will market to the right people)
3. Avoid spending thousands on publicity in one huge chunk (you’ll
likely not get a return on that investment)
4. Instead, use small on-going investments to “seed the market” to
build world of mouth buzz about your book. Examples Honorée gave us
include leaving “loaner copies” in offices, leaving your book in
coffee shops, using stamps — through Zazzle –sending out postcards
and giving away bookmarks.
