I read a post over at the change your life blog this week titled
Take the opportunity to understand your Why
It really is a good post, you may want to give it a read.
It got me to wondering
I know my “What”
That is to be an author, and I will be publishing soon as you all know.
I also know my “Why”
I write because I love to, and I know it is what I am supposed to be doing.
That brings me to my “How”
How am I going to become a published author?
How are people, the 7 billion+ people of this planet going to know who I am ?
How are they going to find my book ?
Well Amazon for kindle of course, to start with anyways, then an all out social media blitz campaign.
I intend on making a lot of noise about my book when it comes out, and I will not quit.
Probably some groveling, and asking favors of prominent people to help promote my book would not hurt either.
If I do decide to go the traditional published print route, I will find all the literary agents for children’s books and query them all.
I have not figured out all the ins and outs, but I have some great mentors who help a lot with answering the question,
“How do I do this?”
So I have a plan, you know the saying,
“plan your work, work your plan”
So I ask you
Do you know Your What, Your Why, And Your How ?
Failing to plan, is planning to fail. Sounds like you will find success sooner or later. Go get ‘em.
Hey Stu,
I will find it there is no doubt in my mind at all, thanks for the inspiration

Ya gotta start somewhere. The “2012 Writer’s Market” may provide genreal background info (try the library , the 2011 is probably about the same, and there may be one just for Children’s Market). Might keep up with Roxie’s blog: http://roxieh.wordpress.com/
She relays a lot of good publishing info
Thanks for all the info Phil and for taking the time to stop by
