*dr. judi, the author of 6 books who earned 3 degrees from Harvard (one from Hampton, an historically black college [HBCU]) is a college Mom, homemaker, wife and has been a professional speaker with the NSA (National Speakers Association) since 1999. She served as "author in residence" at Hampton University and would be delighted to consult with you about a book you may want to write. Is there a book inside of you? Aftert he release of each of my books, the most common question is, "Where do you start with writing a book?" Although we offer consulations services, through OTOW Trainers, I offer the following points for a good start. If you are interested, kindly contact usf or a consulation: otowtrainers@gmail.com.
First Steps for the New Author:
1. Write or Google the Library of Congress. Copyright your material to protect your intellectual property. (Once you have an origiinal idea)
2. Free write or make a conceptual framework.
3. Make an outline.
4. Determine if you want to release your book in one or each of the current forms: print, ePUb oand or ePDF.
5. Write (without editing).
6. Edit/Proof.
7. Purchase an ISBN (International Standard Book Number) for each version of the book you plan to produce. You will need to purchase a bar code for the print version.
8. Find a printer you trust and ask for a proposal.
9. For e-only authors, you may wish to learn more about Amazon.com and their offerings.
10. Write!
I wish you the best. I read somewhere where 81% of people want to write a book; and only 1% actually do. If you have a book inside of you, we would be delighted to serve you at OTOW Trainers and Lovelight International Press.
