For more info on Hope check here: http://www.fundsforwriters.com/hope.htm Hope's newest book is: "THE SHY WRITER - An Introvert's Guide to Writing Success." http://www.theshywriter.com Writers are writers only when writing. After "the end" they don business hats and start the sales pitches to agents, editors, audiences, bookstores, etc. Public appearance is stressful enough to shut down some writers from ever publishing, and a few just quit writing altogether. This book teaches writers
how to sell their words without selling their souls. Writers tend to be reclusive individuals, and this book aims to teach them how to live their writing dream without total sacrifice of their sanity and peace-of-mind. WHEN?
