IF YOUR DREAM IS TO BE A BESTSELLING AUTHOR WITH A BIG NEW YORK PUBLISHER, YOU HAVE THE WRONG DREAM. But if you want to break into the bestselling ranks of Amazon.com by writing niche, how-to, or creative nonfiction, FOOLPROOF! BREAKOUT NONFICTION: Your Essential Guide for Writing Blockbuster Nonfiction will show you how. You may be surprised to know that nonfiction comprises 80% of all published books. Even while so many authors concentrate their efforts on writing the Great American Novel, other authors are writing books geared toward improving lives, sharing insights, increasing knowledge, and providing solutions to problems. Because nonfiction books teach, instruct, and inspire, they’re highly valued. What does this mean to you? By writing and publishing nonfiction books, you can increase your odds of building a meaningful writing career while forging a personal path towards financial independence. Breakout nonfiction authors write informative books that deliver practical advice, provide actionable instruction, and showcase personal narratives. They routinely publish one, two, four, or more books a year, year in and year out. They tell ‘stories’ that focus on the real-life struggles of everyday people and inspire their readers towards a better way. Unlike novels, which are read for entertainment and for the emotional roller coaster of following a hero on a life-changing ride, nonfiction books improve lives. FOOLPROOF! BREAKOUT NONFICTION will take you through a step-by-step guide guaranteed to make the process of writing nonfiction books not only informative but exciting. Learn all of the following and more. · Success tips for writing breakout nonfiction · Elements of bestselling nonfiction books · Qualities that make niche nonfiction and creative nonfiction popular · Why nonfiction books should tell engaging ‘stories’ · Nonfiction trends and the bookselling marketplace · How to write your nonfiction books from beginning to end · Why nonfiction can make your writing career · The reason nonfiction books are more lucrative than novels · Why all novelists can write nonfiction but not all nonfiction authors can write novels · Why the expression ‘what’s-in-it-for-them’ is crucial for breakout success Do you want to restart your writing career?

Rather than see the estate prosper, he intends to destroy it. But their impulsive marriage—one that secures Julia's plans as well as Cal's secrets—proves that passion is ambition's greatest rival. Unless Cal ends his quest to satisfy his darkest vendetta, he stands to ruin his Worthington wife and all her glittering dreams.

Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1982172436
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 243
Book Description
Pretty Mess meets #Girlboss in this part memoir, part entrepreneurial manifesto from The Real Housewives of New Jersey’s “Powerhouse in Pigtails.” Margaret Josephs is a hustler. She’s a tough cookie. She speaks her mind. She never leaves the house without lipstick on. She’s also a devoted wife, mother, daughter, businesswoman, lifestyle expert, and fan-favorite star of the reality TV series The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Sounds pretty glamorous, right? Well, things are never exactly as they seem. Before she arrived where she is today, “The Marge” was born to young immigrant parents. Raised by a single party-girl mother who left her physically abusive father when she was one and a half, she was taught that it was more important to look good than to feel good. No structure. No rules. No blueprint for future success or stability. But like most people who struggle through atypical childhoods, destructive relationships, and career challenges, she forced herself to wake up every morning and put one high heel in front of the other, even if she didn’t know where she was going. Margaret took the cards she was dealt and eventually turned them into a winning hand, and she wants to arm fans with the ability to do the same. In Caviar Dreams, Tuna Fish Budget, she’ll talk about how to launch a lifestyle brand, how to work with family members, and how to be an uncompromising woman in a man’s world. She also spills stories from her personal life about the son Real Housewives viewers don’t know exists, the time Joan Rivers gave her the best advice she ever got, the rendezvous she had with a famous rock star, and the affair with her contractor that ended her marriage but gave her the happily ever after. Caviar Dreams, Tuna Fish Budget takes fans along Margaret’s wild, bumpy journey to entrepreneurial success and reality TV fame, written in her trademark no-nonsense, tongue-in-cheek voice with the perfect combination of grit and glitz.
