- Finding my book on the shelves at the Bellevue, WA Public Library: what a treat!
Ever since my first book came out at the end of 2010, Writing to Make a Difference: 25 Powerful Techniques to Boost Your Community Impact, I have been pleased to help several other authors independently publish! A few of those books are already available: Move Our Message: How to Get America’s Ear, Skyeview: A Sistah’s View of the World, Paris Chapter, and Bone Health Made Easy.
As these authors can attest, a book or ebook is a great way to share your experience and insights, bring more visibility to your cause, and establish yourself as a passionate authority (“author” is the root word here). With the expanding universe of independent publishing (a.k.a. self-publishing), the sky is the limit!
But how do you make indie publishing work for you and/or your organization?
I have created some free resources to help you explore this exciting opportunity:
- Watch a brief introduction to independent publishing in this segment I recorded on ToastmasterTime TV
- Read a brief handout from my Authors’ Panel presentation at the 2012 Writing for Change Conference
- Participate in my free October 24 webinar on the topic, hosted by NonprofitWebinars.com. Takeaways will include:
- What a book/ebook can do for your organization (and you)
- Advice on the style, structure, and voice of a book that creates social change
- Introduction to independent publishing
- Recommended resources

Happy writing!
