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

  Recently	I	realized	that	I	have	already	lived	more	of	my	life	than	what	I	have
  left,	and	somehow	that	made	me	even	more	determined	than	ever	to	make	the
  most	of	my	time.	I	think	when	we	get	past	the	age	of	fifty	or	sixty,	we	begin	to
  think	quite	differently	about	our	life	and	what	we	want	to	do	with	our	time	than
  we	 did	 perhaps	 when	 we	 were	 twenty,	 thirty,	 or	 even	 forty.	 We	 realize	 more
