About this ebook
The reality of being an author today means that you can't do it all alone. The writing, designing, editing, publishing, and marketing of a book is no longer a one-man or one-woman show. Authors, if they want to put their best professional face forward, must now build a publishing team and rely on third party consultants to help them realize their dreams of publishing gold. But, most authors are not familiar with the challenges, pitfalls, and complexities of hiring third party consultants. This e-book distills the top ten questions every author needs to ask before they take the leap into third party hiring. It's not rocket science, but it's also not for the timid. Rapid Story Development: Ten Questions Every Writer Needs to Ask Before They Hire a Consultant will take some of the guesswork out of hiring competent help, and assist you in building your power-publishing team.
