Number of Pages 250
Hey
there! I wanted to share with you an exciting new resource for writing
a non-fiction book that just got published. Bestselling author Scott
Rauvers has been writing books for over 15 years on all sorts of
topics, from science to health and fitness. Thousands of people have
benefited from his 75 published paperback books.
In his new book,
Documented Techniques for Writing Non-Fiction and Proposal Ideas that
get you published, Scott shares his proven methods for taking your book
from idea to finished product. He covers everything from revising your
manuscript to writing a book that matters to people. Scott also shares
publishing tips and tricks he's learned over the years.
Writing a successful
non-fiction book can feel overwhelming when you've never done it
before. You may not know what content to include or how to organize it.
You're also not sure if your idea is even worth pursuing. Well, Scott
helps with all of that! He provides frameworks for developing and
structuring your book in a way that works.
The best part is,
Scott's methods are very effective but not overly complicated or
time-consuming. By following his guidance, you can write a must-read
book that attracts tons of readers who help spread your message. The
book also gives you strategies for marketing your book through email,
websites, social media, and other channels.
Scott makes the
publishing process fun and manageable. You can literally write an
e-Book in as little as 7 days by using his step-by-step coaching
techinque. Publishing your own work opens many doors like gaining
credibility in your field, reaching more people, and diversifying your
income.
So whether you're a
copywriter, freelancer or entrepreneur, this book has what you need to
write a successful non-fiction book. I highly recommend checking it out
- it just might help get your name on the Amazon bestsellers
list!
