Hot Copy #48: Publishing a business book: A how to guide.

Let your brain slip sideways and just write then edit like hell.

The pros, cons, challenges and practicalities of publishing your own business book.

Today we’re chatting business books – and whether they can help boost your copywriting business.

As writers, many of us have a burning desire to be a published author. Or have a novel on the go in secret, that we never manage to work on due to client demands.

But can we channel those book writing urges into publishing a business book? And if we do, what impact will it have on our business? We chat through the pros, cons, the practicalities and the challenges with someone who has just hit publish – Kate Toon!
