title: Writer's Breakthrough: Steps to Copyright And Publish Your Own Book
author: Grace LaJoy
description: Writer's Breakthrough: Steps To Copyright And Publish Your Own Book is a guide written especially for aspiring writers who know absolutely nothing about book publishing. Though Writer's Breakthrough is especially addressed to gifted Christian writers, its advice is solid and practical for writers of all faiths, as are its sample forms. Roughly half of Writer's Breakthrough is devoted to a simplified, step-by-step walkthrough to publishing a book, with bonus tips concerning marketing and distribution; the other half is filled with examples and forms, from a suggested format for a copyright page to a sample copyright application. Writer's Breakthrough is an excellent, practical, easy-to-understand resource for novice writers and aspiring self-publishers. --Midwest Book Review<br /><br />This book inspires, educates and empowers you to utilize the writing gift that God gave you. --Dan Poynter, The Self-Publishing Manual
