WE are looking for authors who are divorced parents or single parents. This
particular title is intended to encourage single parents. It will offer
parenting tips and techniques to ensure the children don’t lose during and
after the divorce. If you have that message and are willing to share, we need your story. Please read the details below and contact me via email mark@moovin4ward.com
Overview
The “My Now” book series offers
motivation to various audiences from experts on selected topics.
What’s In It For
YOU?
Book projects can be lengthy and
costly. By participating in a
collaborative effort, you only have to write one
chapter; all
expenses are shared and the work is done for you.
This will ultimately provide you
with an add-on product that you can sell to generate additional income and
expand your market reach; especially if you are a speaker or trainer. Having your name in print adds to your
overall perceived value and credibility.
Getting Started
1. Submit an 200-word
overview and title of the chapter
We
will review your overview and title to ensure that it fits with the overall
theme of the book topic. Your title
should not contain more than 8 words. If
approved, you are ready for the next step.
2. Submit a 150-word bio and
300 dpi head shot photo.
Your
bio will be included at the beginning of your chapter and also on our
website. Your photo will also appear in
the book (black and white) and on the website (color). Be sure to include contact information,
website and/or social network addresses.
3. Submit your pre-edited,
pre-proofed chapter.
Your
chapter submission should be between 1500-3000 words. Do not include any graphics or call-out
boxes. Since our books typically feature
more than 15 authors, our editor would have a difficult time trying to suggest
modifications while trying to maintain your voice. So you should make efforts to send a near
perfect content.
4. Make edits to your
Chapter Review Copy.
The
purpose of the Review Copy is to allow you to make sure none of your content
was lost in the transition and formatting.
You’ll only get two reviews, so be sure to read your chapter thoroughly.
5. Pay your participation
fee via PayPal.
You’ll
receive your invoice to participate in the project shortly after you receive
your Chapter Review Copy. You’ll need to
make your payment via PayPal before the due date on the invoice. The first 8 participants to pay will be
featured on the front cover.
6. Submit your signed
Chapter Submission Approval Form.
With
each review copy of the book that you receive, you’ll also get a copy of the
Approval Form. When you are completely
satisfied with the content, you’ll need to print, sign and return this form via
email or fax. If this form is not
returned by the deadline, you risk not having your chapter included in the
book.
7. Create a marketing
platform to sell your copies.
If
you don’t already have a platform to market your books, consider a page on your
website or creating a blog. From this
spot, not only can you share information about the project but also sell books
directly… using PayPal. You’ll have the
opportunity to receive additional marketing recommendations in the Authors
Marketing conference calls and in the Authors Lounge on Facebook.
Cost
The cost to participate is $150. This fee covers the cost of production,
marketing materials, and shipping.
Authors will receive 20 copies of the book. The listed retail price for the book will be
$18.99, but you may select your own price to sell your personal copies. You may also purchase additional copies at a
60% discount.
