From the Publisher
Almost everybody feels they have a book in them and I
was no different. I wanted to share what I'd learned the
hard way and leave a lasting legacy.
But, as a marketer rather than a writer, I didn't have a
clue where to begin.
Sure, I had a loyal audience of subscribers reading my tips
and articles but turning all the stuff in your head into a
book - with ISBNs, barcodes, spines, jackets and all the
other components - required knowledge I didn't have
back then.
So, in May 2003 I went on Jo Parfitt's `Release The Book
Within' course in Central London and it changed the
direction of my business and life forever.
As the experienced book cook Jo Parfitt is, she shared her
own secret recipe for releasing the first of many books
that were just waiting for me to create them.
Jo's passion for writing and the assuredness that comes
from someone who has had her work published by all the
big name publishers encouraged me to get started on that
first manuscript. But more than that - she inspired me.
Her passion is infectious.
By August 2003 my first book, co-written with my brother
Joe, was in my hands. I caught the bug and decided to
focus on publishing full time. And, by January 2007, we
had published 33 books and made 5 of them bestsellers.
You now hold in your hands the very same information
that inspired me back in 2003 and on the pages that
follow Jo generously shares over two decades of hard won
knowledge with you.
She shows you absolutely everything - from coming up
with the first idea to sorting out ISBNs to honing the
finished work into a marketable product.
It is my honour to be in a position to now be publishing
this very special book by the person who got me into this
game to begin with.
