The week of September 19-25, 2022, is a great time to contemplate and write your book. National Adult Education and Family Literacy Week is in full swing during this timeframe, inspiring budding authors and their families to get involved in literacy. What better motivation is there to conceptualize your book and prepare it for circulation?
Write Your Book!
Perhaps you are interested in writing a legacy book about your ancestors or your journey through the military, corporate life, wilderness travel, overcoming adversity, family heritage, or any variety of memorable adventures. These books often involve a collaborative-type element that can include many family members, from grandparents to the newest generations who can search ancestry records and lineage archives online.
If you need help getting started or finalizing your project, let me know. I excel in helping authors take their manuscripts through completion through ghostwriting and/or editing.
