It’s such a night present, there’s sentence starters in there which you finish about your partner, or you list what you like about them. It’s you and the book in your own little bubble of time and space doing the cosmic dance, an inheritance of all humankind. All of those things can help you make money by bringing in more clients (or more lucrative clients), opening up new job opportunities, etc.

I don’t know anyone that’s ever dreamt of being a soup and talked about which would be the best but hey it gave a good opportunity to make my wife laugh making a joke of it. It was me and my partners 2 year anniversary a week ago and I bought him this alongside some other bits. I conducted a short survey before I started writing this piece and I found that his estimate wasn’t off. Inside, there’s a page for a gift message, and then the rest of the book is made up of a collection of set pages personalised with your friend’s name and your words, together with additional pages chosen by you, especially for your friend. Sweet, fun, and lighthearted, I Wrote A Book About You is designed to be filled out by you and given to someone you like a lot — a spouse, a sibling, a very good friend.Start naming some, and you’ll realize quickly that 80% or more of the ones on your list are dead (Hemingway, Twain, Lee, Tolkien, etc. Not only that, KENP (royalty rates for books enrolled in the KU program) rates tend to be higher in December. The person your story could help might be someone you’ll never meet—someone who’s struggling with the same things you’ve struggled with.

Plus, once your draft is done, you still need to go through the process of self-editing and then professional editing.

At the time there was a climate where if you published too often, your work was considered to be subpar because you were obviously writing too fast. If you’re even 40 or 45% of the way up the knowledge ladder of your field, all the people who are lower on that ladder could benefit from what you’ve learned. The BEST strategy for a book, the one that led to all those success stories I told you about, is to reach a niche audience.

So the total cost depends on how much of the writing and self-publishing you decide to do yourself—but there’s still going to be some financial investment no matter what. This gift is meaningful and incredibly thoughtful, and a great way to nurture your relationships in a lighthearted or meaningful way.Every one of the authors I’ve mentioned so far in this post wrote a wildly successful book that helped them make a lot of money. She ha traveled the world and lived in many wonderful places -- but she believes she belongs most of all in a little house with a large library, someplace where the forest meets the sea. But it’s the idea of being rich or skinny or an entrepreneur that’s more appealing than actually putting in the work to do it.

In other words, you can’t name and shame people willy nilly, or accuse them of crimes they have not been convicted for. A book that’s as unique as the person you’re gifting it to, letting them know what a great friend they are.

Sweet, fun, and lighthearted, I Wrote a Book About You is designed to be filled out by you and given to someone you like a lot--a spouse, a best friend, a sister, or even an awesome co-worker. As it turns out, there aren’t a lot of great books out there about how to professionally manage and scale a fast-growing company. That book earned him a special message from his 80-year-old father, a man of few words who NEVER reads self-help books. Like I worked so hard on this, did my best, was hanging in there in spite of December fucking with my ads…and then it…just died in a way I couldn’t control. This fun gift book contains delightfully designed fill-in-the-blank pages to describe why this person is simply the best.
