Do You Have the Courage?

I define courage as doing whatever you desire to do in spite of.  In spite of the fear, discouragement, critics, uncertainty or ability.  You just keep going.  You don’t ask permission or approval to keep going.  You may ask for help, get advice, conduct some research, take a class or get a coach but, don’t stop until you reach your goal.  I know people who are creative enough to write words that fill journals and notebooks for years but don’t have the courage to reach out to a publisher and writing coach to see the words materialize in a book and available for sale online or in person.  It takes courage not just creativity.  It takes courage to survive domestic abuse, cancer or just life.  It also takes even more courage to be bold enough to write your experience down on paper and try to prohibit or rescue someone from the same situation.  Sharing and telling that story takes courage.

Creating a story for children.  Writing a romance novel so hot that the pages are steamy.  Putting pen to paper to create a thoughtful poem is wonderful but releasing those words out into the world takes courage.

I am in the midst of writing my 35th book.  I have a 36th fiction book that is half written but putting that book on hold to create this next one.  Why?  Because I have the courage to put pen to paper and create a book that is designed to help authors not only write books but build businesses.  Now, that is my next level of courage.  Purpose.  At my age, I am pursuing my purpose and have the courage to chase it with everything that I have left in me.  Do you?

Do you have the courage to go to your next level and actually give me a call about your book?  I am available to help and you can easily find my number on the Internet.  Just in case you can’t find it, here it is, 502-802-5385.  I dare you to give me a call.  Be Courageous.

What Does Words to Wealth Mean?

Words to Wealth:  What Does that Really Mean?

I recently had a webinar titled, “25 Ways to Turn Your Words into Wealth.”  To get access to the replay, visit this link, http://bit.ly/25wordstowealth.

I realize that some people may not even know what that phrase “Words into Wealth” really means.  What that means to me and what I have experienced in my life and business is that the words that I am inspired to write lead to money, period.  Those same words can and are turned into different products, services, workshops, conferences and events that generate money.  Those same words have led me to be asked to speak at events, collaborate and partner with other business owners, authors and speakers.  That first book, seen by someone at an event, led me to publish someone else’s book for money which led to the establishment of my publishing company, BK Royston Publishing.  This same publishing company has been in existence now for 9 years, signed 54 authors, coached hundreds more and published more than 100 books.  In 2015, a second publishing company was established for additional genres to be published and a new brand, http://www.royalmediaandpublishing.com.  All from the words that I was inspired to write.  My Words literally have been “Turned into Wealth” or money now for 9 years.  Let me help you get started with your first book and show you how to “Turn Words Into Wealth.”  Attend the Virtual Writer’s Summit 2017 on Friday, March 24 – Saturday, March 25.  Sign up at http://bit.ly/writersummit17 for an investment of $59.  The replays will be available only if you sign up.  Let’s get that Book finally finished begin the process of turning Your “Words into Wealth.”

A Writing Coach for What?

A Writing Coach for What?

I don’t know any athlete, sport team or business professional who has not had a coach or mentor to succeed.  As good as the professional sports athletes are, they still need a coach.  Without a coach, all of those gifts and talents would not work together as a whole unit or a well-oiled machine without a coach or leader.  Yes, you could write that book alone but why should you?  Just think if you have a coach helping you with that book, you would have:

Accountability – I know so many people that have started books but given up because they lacked accountability.  Being held accountable to someone is the motivation for some people to get the job done.  Would you really do your job as well as you do it if you didn’t have a supervisor?  The book can get done so much better with an accountability partner. 

Feedback – A good coach should provide you with immediate feedback on your writing.  The feedback should be corrective, positive, provide clear instructions to make progress and help the writing process move forward. 

Guidance – Personally, I hate getting lost.  I am so thankful for the phone’s GPS.  Barring in problems with an update, it gives me clear direction and specific turns to make to reach my destination.  A coach with little or much less experience than you have is a friend or cohort on your journey.  Unless they have been there before, they don’t know the way.  Your coach should be able to lead the way to the end and not still be trying to find their way themselves. 

Knowledgeable – A writing coach should be a writer.  The writing coach should know something about writing and understand the writing process. 

Saves Time – With having a coach with experience, knowledge and guidance, it will save you time.  You have clear direction you don’t waste time. 

Saves Money – Clear direction of what you should and should not do will save you money in the end.  You will not waste money

Experience – The writing coach who is able to guide you because they have the experience.  Work with and hire an experienced coach to help you with your writing project.  Experience truly is the best teacher.
