Power Words for Authors…
Most Authors Have Trouble… Hyping themselves in any fashion is just not a “comfortable” thing for writers to do. In the sales copy class, the first assignment was for each writer to come up with 10 power words that they could use in sales copy to describe themselves. Power words are words (not clauses) that carry emotion with the word. There are negative, neutral, and positive power words full of emotion. We wanted ten positive words a writer could use in a promotion sentence about themselves. Numbers of writers got ten, numbers put full clauses, and so on. Fear once again raises its ugly head for no reason at all.…

Attitude is Everything!
Wow, Am I Having Fun… When Steph went down the road, Kris and I decided we wanted to make the switch to doing everything ourselves. Now we had done that in the early days of indie publishing, but employees took over some things and we didn’t learn some new ways. Now we are. And to be honest, we are both having a blast.

One More Time… Sales Copy Class…
Three Weeks to Making More Money… This has started, but time to jump in. Reason I started this, to be honest, I got tired of hearing myself complain about authors killing their own sales with bad sales copy. And I wanted to give this instruction to the few taking the Sales Mentorship which includes branding, covers, sales, openings of stories and endings and more. So here is the class. Cost is $150 and there are two homework assignments in the three weeks. Stared February 3rd, so more than enough time to get in. Link directly to it is… https://wmg-publishing-workshops-and-lectures.teachable.com/courses/sales —- Writing Sales Copy: Three Weeks To More Money Yank the…
