Writing Tip — Writing Your Own Words

Life is hectic, and sometimes it seems like a better idea to go the ghostwriter route. I do not agree with someone else writing your words for you. Try to avoid this at all costs, but utilize a strong, connected ghostwriter if necessary—because these are you stories. This is your pain or happiness. No one can fully understand what you have gone through in life, so they cannot accurately express it on paper. Only you can.

I had a ghost writer offer to write my first book, “10 Rules to Survive the Dating Jungle.” However, she wanted to make it fiction, and I didn’t want to take it in that direction. The book was a set of rules I made for myself after enduring a divorce, losing my stepson, and enduring an entire lifetime of toxic, unhealthy relationships. She had no idea the pain and agony I went through with a controlling and verbally abusive husband. Only I know what it felt like. So in order to tell my story, to connect and resonate with the reader, my words had to come from me.

You might be afraid to put your story out there, and I do admit it’s a grueling process. There is no short cut to get it done, but I can provide little tricks that will make it easier.

Here’s an overview of the 5 keys to blogging your book, how to get started, keep up and ultimately turn your blog into a best selling book — blog

  1. Be persistent. In order to receive grand results you must keep adding content to your blog. Make sure you blast a post at least 3 – 4 times a week.
  2. Write short teasers. Don’t post all of your content on your blog. Put a few paragraphs on each subject then at the end post a link to pre-order your book. Once the reader is engaged in the information you are providing, capturing them at the moment is crucial to get sales for you book and/or services.
  3. SEO. Make sure to utilize key words to drive traffic to your blog.
  4. Pictures. Always use a photo and bane the image appropriately. I get traffic now from people googling: Bachelor Pad Logo, because I posted it on a blog and named the file right.
  5. Publicize. Hook up all your other social media so your posts are blasted out into the universe. Its difficult keeping up with all social media, but linking them with one click of a button saves you a ton of time.

Last week Richter Publishing got the opportunity to spread some holiday cheer at the Joshua House!

The Joshua House is a foster care program of the Children’s Home Society of Florida, offering a therapeutic, family-like environment to children between the ages of six and seventeen. Friends of Joshua House Foundation, Inc. is an organization comprised of a group of kindhearted individuals who are dedicated to providing a safe haven for the abused, neglected, and abandoned youth of Tampa.

Last Wednesday we were able to donate some 200 books to the Joshua House Library, just in time for Christmas! We were extremely delighted to be able to support such a great cause. What better way to spend the holiday than by giving, and spreading literacy! Seeing the smiles on the children’s faces was truly rewarding, and made every bit of our visit worthwhile.

Our newest author, Tammy Levent, was also there to help inspire and give away presents to the girls, including copies of her new book, “Sink or Swim.” Click here to learn more about Tammy and her book

We would like to send a special thanks to Tammy Levent and Diana Fisler for their participation and effort, and, last but not least, to the counselors and children at the Joshua House for providing the warmest welcome and accommodation!

HEALTHY EATING EXPENSE: MYTH OR REALITY 

Jeff White; master motivational speaker, healthy lifestyle connoisseur and author will be discussing wholesome eating with host Brian Webb on WBLJ NewsTalk 1230 AM in Dalton, GA.

Can you put a price on your health? Big appetites are the norm in families today, but does the higher cost of healthier food destine most people to shop at budget supermarkets, where the same bill can see a family through a week’s worth of, arguably less-healthy, food?

“ORGANIC FOODS WILL ALWAYS BE MORE EXPENSIVE BECAUSE THEY ARE NICHE ITEMS AND NOT MASS PRODUCED.”

All obstacles in the food production chain — such as lower yields, sourcing products and having to prove foods are not contaminated by GMOs– will add additional costs and drive up the price.

ENTREPRENEUR AND FITNESS EXTRAORDINAIRE JEFF WHITE uses his expertise to elaborate on how eating a balanced diet is the key to a healthy life, but can be rather expensive to maintain.

Jeff and Brian will discuss; How can our diet affect our lifestyle? Why is our eating habits conducive to our overall health? Why is good nutrition so expensive? Should we put a price on food? 

Don’t forget to grab a copy of his book “The 3 Pillars of Strength: Increasing Your Physical, Mental, and Spiritual Fitness”.

On the Road: From a Block of Clay

ontheroadPublished author from Richter Publishing, Elizabeth Bunbury’s “On the Road: From a Block of Clay”

In her previous book, FROM A BLOCK OF CLAY, POTLUCK EDITION, Elizabeth Bunbury concluded with these words: “Let the journey begin…” Well, her journey has truly begun, and she is now “on the road”. Bunbury believes it is the path God prepared specifically for her to travel even before she was born. While there were many detours, with God’s help– and of others whom he sent to walk the path with her—she is moving forward. We are all on a journey, and we all have a story to tell. The stories in ON THE ROAD show the progression of Bunbury’s journey with its twists, turns, back-tracking, and going forward again. Your life’s journey may be somewhat similar to hers, or quite different. Either way, it is her prayer that, as you read, you will realize you are not alone on this journey called life. May you learn there is hope that a new, smoother path could be just ahead. “THE ROAD TO SUCCESS IS ALWAYS UNDER CONSTRUCTION.” Author Unknown
