What happens after the book is published is often not what authors expect. We expect the inevitable "dip" in sales. We expect to spend time coming up with new strategies for getting the book in front of new readers.

But we often don't expect a post-publication "funk." 

In this episode of the Write the Damn Book Already podcast, I dive into this reality of book publishing and what authors can do to mitigate it.

WRITE THE DAMN BOOK ALREADY

A program for writing powerful, thought-provoking nonfiction or memoir so you can grow your business or simply share your story.

This is for you if you:

✍️ Want to write powerful nonfiction or memoir (and avoid common, unnecessary mistakes along the way) 

✍️ Crave support, knowledgeable guidance, and compassionate ass-kicking when you begin feeling unsure of what you’re doing, why you started, or whether it’s going to be worth it (hint: it absolutely will)

✍️ Want to be part of a community of authors who provide accountability, feedback, creative suggestions, and inspiration (not to mention a spot-on meme here and there!)

 and

✍️ Group coaching/masterminding with Elizabeth every other week to help you navigate roadblocks so you can get to the finish line of writing a book you're immensely proud to release into the world
