Publishing Made EASY!!

     Are you really in a “rush” to get your book done?

     Every time someone says that they are in a hurry to get their book ready for publishing, they drag their feet on making a decision.Yes, putting a book together is a costly endeavor. Some people think that they’ll just do it “cheaper” through the “do-it-alone” route. Unfortunately, this means they will be spending even more money in the long run because they will end up with an inferior product. I’ve seen it happen over and over again,and it absolutely pains me!

     Sometimes they will come back to me after their book is done and ask us to redo the whole thing because it hasn’t been properly edited or proofed. It hasn’t been designed for their audience and the cover is from a template that has no relation to their message. I just want to scream!

     They wonder why it isn’t selling or why people aren’t reading it.

     Sure, it feels good to have authored a book and have something to sell in the back of a room. But is it really going to enhance your credibility if the book is less than excellent? No! In fact, it will reflect poorly on you, your business, and your brand. What is the message you want to deliver to your audience? That the actions you take are whatever is cheap and quick? Or that you are about delivering excellence in everything you do?

     At Launch Pad Publishing, we do our best to work with you on a payment plan or show you other possibilities to get funding for your project, so you can always put your best foot forward and be supported in achieving your goals. I didn’t start this company just to be another publisher in the market and certainly not to be a glorified printer! My goal is to create more best-sellers than any other publisher has ever done on the face of the planet. That begins with turning out great books that are thoroughly edited, proofed, and designed to reach your audience in your voice, get your message out there.

     Not long ago, after our stormy days, thebeach had an additional row of seaweed that brought other plant life, including real sea sponge! The water was calmer, yet very murky, and the tide was still in, very deep close to shore.

     I thought about the stormy waters of the other day and how it stirred up so much, bringing treasures from the ocean depths.

     Isn't it like that for us, too, when we allow it? We have stormy times, difficult times, and everything feels all jumbled up. Yet, amazing things come up. And when life settles down again, we have learned so much and are ready to take great leaps forward.

     It's like that when writing a book, too. All of the words and ideas can feel overwhelming. But the treasures we bring out to share with others are priceless! You don't have to be stuck in the murky waters, give me 30 minutes and you'll be off and running with your book project!


Happy Writing...

To Your Authorship Success!
