A book or e-book is a great way to share your experience and insights, bring more visibility to your business or cause, and establish yourself as a passionate authority. With the expanding universe of independent publishing (a.k.a. self-publishing), the world is now your oyster. How do you make this opportunity work for you and/or your organization?
I was pleased to contribute to the Author Learning Center, an online learning community for book authors. In the first of four interviews, I discuss the three secrets of authors who use their books to influence social change. You can see this 2 1/2-minute video for free here:
The other 3 brief videos cover:
1) Making YouTube Work for You
2) Independent Publishing for Nonprofits
3) Repurposing Your Book Content

Other Authors have said:
“I very much appreciate Dalya’s editing expertise and, equally important, her coaching. Thanks to her coaching my manuscript doesn’t read like a collection of blog posts–it’s really a GOOD read and valuable resource. She is a pleasure to work with, too.” – Skye Ward, Author, Skyeview: A Sistah’s View of the World, Paris Chapter | |
“Dalya Massachi received my rather jumbled, convoluted, original draft. She then converted it all quite efficiently into a form that was ultimately much more appropriate and appealing to the many who can now benefit. I LOVE the result!” – Dr. Ken Howayeck, author, Bone Health Made Easy | |
“Dalya’s insight and honesty were tremendously helpful from the beginning–when she very aptly advised me to start over–through completion, as she artfully pointed out whenever I had gone off course. Her edits were skillful, minimally invasive and maximally supportive, helping me to say what I was trying to say in a more engaging way. I really enjoyed being in touch with Dalya throughout the longer-than-anticipated time it took to complete my work and recommend her highly.” – Elaine Pierce, author of the forthcoming book, Deep Green Yoga. | |
“Dalya Massachi served as editor for my book, and she did an outstanding job.” – Susan Strong, Author, Move Our Message! How to Get America’s Ear: A Handbook for Progressives | |
“I highly recommend Dalya. She’s trustworthy, consistent and reliable service provider to work with. I’m very happy with the editing work she’s has done for my book.” – Suzanne Abboud, Author, You Can Be Healthy At Any Age: 17 Practical Guidelines To a Healthy Life! |
