Who Are You?
I am a little bit crazy, maybe that's why I decided to wait up for a blab about book publishing and marketing that started at 2.30a.m. GMT ( I live in N Ireland). Anyway I am so glad I did because I got some great ideas from one of the experts who is a best selling author and specializes in marketing strategies.
I watched the blab(at blab.im) with great interest and made a few comments but since I was in bed I didn't actually join it. That is until 4.30 a.m. just as they were ready to finish. I got dressed, rushed downstairs. put on some lipstick and even.though I was so late they let me have my say.
Oh boy, it was so worth my while to have stayed up. I got some great nuggets in a very short time and I am going to share a couple with you.. All the things I had been focusing on after I had written the story weren't nearly as important as I had imagined. The title,the cover even the story itself can be changed or improved upon at any time.
What really matters is getting your message out to as many targeted people as possible. Those who can benefit from your message. Just as people aren't joining your business -they are joining you - so it is with your book. So if you want to sell your book, first of all you have to ask yourself who you are.
Sometimes you need an expert to point you in the right direction. I thought I was the storyteller, but Dr Will told me who I really am. You are "the queen of hope" - you are the person who searched for 40 years for your mother and didn't give up. You are the person who can show others that no matter how impossible a task may seem, they must never give up. Miracles do happen, dreams do come true and now I am so grateful to him for letting me know who I really am "The Queen of Hope". It has a ring to it.
like most people,I have had many trials and tribulations in my life but I have always been able to smile and laugh my way through them. With my new title, I hope I can help many others to do the same.

That title "The Queen of Hope" encompasses so much potential for opportunity! Thanks for the inspiration and hope you provide us all with your words!
Not only are you the "Queen of Hope", you are also the epitome of persistence and determination. While you are still up "burning the midnight oil" as the expression goes, most of us are sleeping. It seems to me that maybe I need to be more of a night owl and find out what I'm missing..Thank you for an inspiring post. Angela
Hope is the thread that binds together Faith and Love. Because, when faith is failing, and love seems out of reach, Hope is the knot we tie at the end of our rope. And we hang on for dear life until Faith and Love are returned to us again.
lol I am another one who gets up at silly hours because of some great idea or other and Friday night of late is spending time with Jay's wonderful webinars at 1am in the morning I am in Scotland
The Queen of Hope has a nice ring to it Hilary. It epitomizes your life-long attitude. Long may you reign. ~Marion
