Book, journal, course, or done-for-you? Here's how to choose.

I hope these past six days have helped you see a path from "I want to be an author," to understanding (some of) your options. Hopefully, you see at least one possible path from overwhelmed to published.

Should we talk about which option is right for you? Well, we're here so why not?

Each option works, and each one has helped someone become an author. The question isn't which is "best"—it's which one is best for you, your business, your schedule, and, of course, your budget.

Option 1: The Book (99¢) Write Your First Nonfiction Book​

Choose this if:

  • You want the formula and can run with it
  • You love a bargain (it's literally less than a very inexpensive latte)
  • You enjoy figuring things out with good direction
  • You just need to know what goes where

Option 2: Book + Journal ($10.98 total) Add the Write Your First Nonfiction Book Journal​

Choose this if:

  • You want to plan everything before you start writing
  • You like structure and worksheets (raises hand)
  • You want clarity on your entire book upfront
  • You want to see the whole picture before committing

Option 3: Complete Toolkit (30% off with code subscriber) Book + Journal + Course ​

Choose this if:

  • You want video walkthroughs (seeing is believing)
  • You learn better by watching than reading
  • You want to hear from other first-time authors
  • You want the complete implementation system

Option 4: Bespoke Book Publishing Complete done-for-you service ($45K-$100K+)

Choose this if:

  • You can recoup your investment in 3-5 client engagements
  • You'd rather talk than type
  • You want white-glove, concierge-level service from strategy through launch
  • Your time is better spent running your business

Reply with "BESPOKE" and your best mailing address (US only) for a copy of Your Book Means Business and a link to my calendar.

Here's what I know about you:

You've been thinking about writing this book for a while. Maybe a long while. The expertise is there. The desire is there.

The only thing missing has been knowing which path forward makes sense.

Now you know your options.

One year (or less) from now, you'll either be a published author or still thinking about becoming one.

The difference is the decision you make today.

Not tomorrow. Not "when things slow down" (they won't). Not "when I have more time" (you won't).

Today.

Start your journey:

  • ​Book (99¢)
  • ​Journal ($9.99)
  • ​Course (30% off with subscriber)
  • ​Bespoke Reply with "BESPOKE" + your mailing address

Whatever you choose, I'm cheering for you! I hope you choose your path (today?!).

I'll be here when you're ready. Now, who is watching the Super Bowl tomorrow? Who are you cheering for? I'll see you Monday!

Honorée Corder.
Author. Executive Book Producer.

P.S. The book you've been meaning to write? It won't write itself. But with the right support—whether that's a 99¢ book or a six-figure service—it will get written. The only question is: which path feels right for you?

Reading time: < 56 seconds We've covered the DIY path and talked about three of the resources I have (there are more, I'll talk about them soon). But maybe along the way, you've realized that you don't actually want to write your book yourself. There's a side of my business I don't talk about a lot here. For those who want to delegate the entire process, while they focus on the business at hand, I have a bespoke book publishing option. They had the expertise, the desire to share it, and the...

Reading time: < 26 seconds It's been a big week! First, an update on Shadow--we're keeping him on three meds to try to shrink the tumor before a follow-up next week. 🐕 We've also been busy this week, solving the world's book writing challenges by providing: (1) The book (the blueprint) and (2) The journal (the planning tool). But sometimes we need--or want--more. So for those of you who have been eyeing the course, let's talk about it. Perhaps you might have been thinking, Okay, I get the...

Reading time: < 26 seconds So you got the blueprint (Write Your First Nonfiction Book), right? (I mean, if you want to write your book and don't want to stress out about it, now's the time!) Speaking of now, let's talk about how proper planning pays plenty. :) What I've seen, working with hundreds of aspiring authors, is that some people can read about the 8-chapter formula and just start writing. Look-choose-move. They see the structure and off they go. Let's face it, those people are...
