Webinar: What to Expect from the Editing Process (Free)

You’ve done what 97% of aspiring authors can’t. You’ve actually finished writing your book. But the truth is many finished manuscripts never get published because authors get overwhelmed by the editing process and blindsided by costs.

Learn to navigate both the process and the cost with confidence and join the exclusive 1% who actually get their books into readers’ hands.

Why Most Authors Never Publish (And How You’ll Be Different)

The Publishing Reality:

  • Only 30 out of 1,000 people who start writing actually finish their book
