Take a book business tip from me. Creators have 3 income streams… Two are obvious — book sales, and being paid to speak. What’s the third? — Profile. Profile builds your sales, and it’s the spur for all those borrowings — so PLR, DLR and ELR. #ptk writerscentre.com.au/store/courses/…

Can't stop smiling after an afternoon of planning, not 1 but 2 new books. With Dub Rhubarb Swoon and the amazing Cathie Tasker AND note the two fantastic fellas on the right... they are the most amazing men, seldom acknowledged properly, quietly making things happen!

Thanks Lisa. Looking forward to the next steps.

I'm excited too. The books are going to be great.

Amazing book.

All about the book business too.
