    About this ebook

    This is the one book most authors wished they had before they took a bite of the publishing apple.

    USA Today Bestselling author, Renee Bernard ; National Bestselling author, Naleighna Kai ; Award-winning authors J. L. Woodson , Martha Kennerson , Susan D. Peters , L. A. Lewis , and Janice Pernell ; along with D. J. McLaurin , Joyce A. Brown , Valarie Prince , Candy Jackson , and Tanishia Pearson-Jones share their insight, wisdom, and their publishing journeys—from self-publishing to signing with independent publishing houses to landing deals with the major houses and achieving nationwide success.

    Though each author took a different road, what they all have in common is the desire to share their experiences so that aspiring writers can make informed decisions about the best path to take and learn from the mistakes they made along the way.

    If this book does not inspire you to get off your butt and write … nothing will.
