Praise for my e-books:
“Thanks to the Step by Step Guide, my old university is now a client! I emailed their communications office as part of the Guide’s “low-hanging fruit” exercise. I had an in-person meeting, and now they want me to write a feature article for their alumni magazine – at $500 for 1,000 words.
“There’s also the prospect of ongoing work, as they’re interested in upping the university’s Web content for the coming term. It was one of the first letters of introduction I ever sent, so I’m delighted!” -Gwen Boyle
I like how you explained the SWOT and business plan in Freelance Business Bootcamp. Previous business advice I’d received wasn’t specific to freelance writers. I needed knowledge geared toward solopreneurs and services. Your book covers this beautifully. I also appreciate your detailing every realistic disaster and how to avoid them, especially client management. Everything it takes to start is right there, something that can be scary if left to an inexperienced imagination. You tell exactly how to proceed. I look forward to more of your books!-Deidre M. Simpson

I loved the format and was surprised at just how much info was packed in there. -Patricia Margaret Bruce

The book is full of practical ways to develop a blog into a profitable business. It was easy to understand and apply. The information was more than useful; it was practical! There is a great lack of practical books on blogging. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is building or interested in building a blog based business.”-Jon Clayton
