   Great content, Kathleen!
   Do you go into more detail on the mechanics of the YouTube and GooglePlus marketing components you mentioned here in your post?

     The webinar with Lynne Klippel deals with getting the book done. I do have more information I will be providing on YouTube and Google+. Be watching for it.

   Great video Kathleen. I see my challenge in getting the book written. I am established in social media. Now I just need to create the book. Signing up for the interview which I’ll need to listen to afterwards here in Bristol. Thanks. 🙂

   Thanks Kathleen. Your myths are right on the money. I am working on my book and decided early on to self publish which has allowed me to concentrate on the content and message instead of who will publish my book. I would recommend authors make that decision early on as well. Thanks!

   Hi Kathleen,
   I enjoyed the video very much!!! I have an ebook, Write to Relax Now, that teaches any one that writes how to overcome writer’s block, fear and negative emotions when writing.I think being aware of these factors are important when someone starts a writing project.. Thank you for the great tips!!!

    Hi Kathleen,
    I didn’t have any trouble finishing my book (I have trouble shutting up!), but my challenge is always mindset. Am I worth it? Is my book worth it? Can I really sell this? This is why I enjoy listening to you. You make a person feel they can do anything. Marketing is easy? OK. If you say so, then it is. I give myself permission to feel empowered to go out and talk up my book!
    I also appreciate your low-tech visuals in the video. Thank you for not presenting those myths in a series of Power Point screens. That little trick alone “verifies” that anyone can do this. I think I’ll go make a video, too! I’m not up on those presentation softwares, but I have a white board and a camera!
    Thanks!
