Tired of sifting through book marketing guides that focus more on the author’s life story than on advice you can apply to your career? Or, worse still, advice guides that are really meant for nonfiction authors and have precious little information for novelists? What about when an entire book reads as nothing more than a pitch for the author’s services or other books in his series?
We’re tired of it too. Every Novel Publicity Guide to Writing & Marketing Fiction is focused on you. Whether you’re an aspiring novelist who’s still trying to figure all this out or an established novelist doing your best to stay up-to-date with the hottest marketing tactics of the day, this book will deliver tons of action-packed advice you can put into practice today.
The creative mind inherently resists the order and organization required for proper accounting.
See? Your mind just wandered while reading that sentence. Didn't it?
Don't feel bad though. Lots of people are terrified of doing their taxes. You’d be surprised how many people don’t file at all simply because of the fear and anxiety the process inspires. (No matter how stressed you become, of course, not filing your taxes is a terrible strategy.) Yes, taxes are definitely the grown-up equivalent of the boogeyman living under the bed. Fortunately, you're not alone.
Still, you're an author, not an accountant! The very last thing you want to do is read an entire book about accounting, finance, and tax preparation. I get that, but ignoring the inevitable is no longer an option.
The reality is, you're running a business now. As much as you might prefer to live in the world of right-brained creativity, you need to dust off your left-brain now and put it to work. Because as soon as you decided to publish your work and charge for it, you became a business owner. Tracking your resources, marketing your books, editing, and refining your prose—these are tasks you're already undertaking to exercise your organizational skills. That means you can really, truly do this.
You can learn how to do your taxes. I know you can.
