HOW TO BECOME A BESTSELLING AUTHOR?
REVIEW by Susan Jagannath - 5 stars - How do you eat the elephant of self publishing? Bite by bite! This book is incorrectly named - it is the complete Encyclopedia and Wikipedia of how to be a successful bestselling author. Whether you are a newbie or already have a few books published, this book gives you all the steps to successfully navigate the increasingly perilous path to enduring bestselling status. I love the author's humour, it adds a chuckle to what could be a heavy informational read, and I love even more her grace in acknowledging that this book is the brainchild of many many authors. In a world where collaboration is the new black, this book demonstrates that that connection wins every time. From steps, to lists to links to resources, this book is a complete guide. I would love to see a printed version. Go grab the book while it's at this ridiculous price, its worth much more!

The Holy Grail of Book Launching is unique in that it will take you very quickly from not knowing anything about book launching to becoming a knowledgeable person having insider info that is essential to have a successful launch.
Beginning writers often think that writing the story is the hard part. More accomplished writers know that writing the story is a tiny part of the whole publishing and launching process.
If you already have a finished, edited, and polished story in your hands, you can go straight to Chapter Two in Volume Two and start from there.
The information in The Holy Grail of Book Launching on its own will help you successfully launch your book. But because we are all different writers with different aims and means and purposes, I also include a variety of links to other experts in the field and resources that will complement the information in this book. You may decide to do the writing yourself but outsource the cover creation, publishing, formatting, launching, and so on. I provide links for these services.
Here are shortcuts to get you quickly to where you want to go.

Professional Reviews
5.0 out of 5 starsthe Ultimate Self Publishing Guidebook
This is, without doubt, one of the most comprehensive resources that I have ever read on self-publishing. It is chocked full of easy to follow instructions and the latest information for getting your book launch to go smoothly. It pulls back the curtain on the launch process and reveals tons of helpful resources all together in the one place. What a great book for writers!
Mimi removes the stress from publishing by taking us by the hand and guiding us with her own experiences as a best selling author.
Specific instructions on the entire self-publishing process, up to date information and a multitude of extra resources ensure that this easy to follow book is a must for all writers.
Highly recommended!
Everything you want to know about Book Publishing
Mimi has written another amazing book about the process of book launching and book publishing. There is a great wealth of information including step by step guides, marketing plans, ideal keyword searches, and the best categories to place your book. The book also has case studies including interviews with bestselling authors. This is one of the best guides I have ever read about book publishing and highly recommend adding this book to your collection.
5 stars OVERFLOWING WITH INFORMATION AND TOOLS
Being a newbie to the world of book publishing, The Holy Grail of Book Launching is exactly that—a point-by-point, overflowing resource of essential tips, how-to instructions, calendars, links, templates and every tool needed for navigating the launching process of a self-published book.
I am in awe of the details, the step-by-step organization and wealth of information that the author has collected, organized and shared from her experiences as well as case studies and interviews with fellow authors. Planning for my upcoming book launch has just become a much less apprehensive prospect. I was so appreciative of Emmanuel's first publication on self-publishing yet find The Holy Grail takes the independent author on a totally new experience through the maze that is needed to broadcast their book.
I would definitely recommend The Holy Grail of Book Launching to anyone attempting to self-publish a book. Emmanuel has succeeded in producing the "one-stop" publishing guide needed to handle Amazon, Kindle, social media, promos, and advertising while still hanging onto one's sanity.
With the new and exciting world of Kindles and Print-on-Demand (POD), Independent Publishing is becoming an enticing choice and a viable alternative to traditional publishing.
