Writing to Publish is a guide for writers who are ready to take the next step and become published authors. The book is divided into three sections. Part 1 helps the writer establish five healthy habits to sustain productive writing activity. The five elements include writing exercises, editing habits, ongoing educational needs, engagement in the writing community, and self-evaluation of skills. Part 2 provides a step-by-step plan for the writer to design a business plan for writing. A business plan for writers may look different than other entrepreneurial endeavors, but creating a mission and vision statement, setting realistic goals and objectives, and developing a plan to budget both time and money are valuable tools for writers who want to move forward in their writing career. Part 3 of the book is dedicated to marketing both the writer and his or her work. The reader is guided through building a media kit as well as planning for an online presence.
