Welcome to Self-Publishing Studio Mini-Course #1: ManuscriptOS.

In this module, we’re going to be talking about:

• The different types of non-fiction books you can write—and which one you should pick if you are a creator, service provider, or business owner who wants to write a book to build your business.
• How to position your book for maximum success—not just “reach” or “sales,” but positioning you as an authority in your niche.
• And how to craft The Perfect Book Title—leveraging my decade+ of expertise and rigorous analysis of best-selling non-fiction book titles.

Let’s dive in!

Why Should You Write A Book?

Maybe your dream is to write books.

Maybe you want to claim the badge of being “an author.”

Maybe you want to write a book to scale & share your insights.

There are lots of different reasons why people are motivated to write books—and all of them are correct. Writing a book is hard work! Which means you need to be emotionally connected to a “reason” to go through all that effort.

Over the past 10 years, I have written 10+ non-fiction books.

I self-published my first book in 2016. It was a memoir called Confessions of a Teenage Gamer.

I wrote that book out of pure love for the craft. I started it in college, where I was studying creative fiction writing, and I wanted to pick a project where I could apply all my new storytelling skills. I spent 4 years writing that book. Did it make me very much money? No (maybe $10,000 total over the past decade).
