TELL THE WORLD.....WRITE A BOOK!
Chances are you're reading this because you're already a blogger, or are considering jumping into the blogging world.
As a weB LOG, the blog can be thought of as a chronological "captain's log" of events in your life or business, the contents of which get posted on the Web in bits and pieces as they occur. But wouldn't it be a good idea to put that in a more comprehensive, one-stop-shopping format so that others can learn from your entire experience?
There's a certain appeal to a book, whether it's the ability to curl up in a chair and read without the hum of a computer in the background, or the luxury of manually flipping paper pages to find the information you need. Many people prefer that to reading online. A series of blog postings doesn't work for them.
That's a potential market for you. If you've got something interesting to say, then you need to write a book to reach those people. With self-publishing sites like Lulu®, anyone can be an author and create an income stream. Not only will they provide printing/shipping services, but they will assist you with marketing. They also allow buyers to download an electronic version of your book, if they prefer. You determine the price, and share part of your revenues with the site.
You may have the ideas, but not the confidence in your writing abilities. Task Partner can be your "ghost writer" or perhaps your editor or proofreader.
Maybe you don't have the skills to desktop publish your work in an appealing yet professional format. We can do that for you too.
If you're in the academic world, you may be familiar with publishing, but putting your highly technical treatise (complete with equations and illustrations) in press-ready format is too time-consuming. With our technical writing expertise, that's routine for us.
So, don't just dream about it - do it! And, if you need a hand along the way, start with a visit to http://www.taskpartner.ca/
P.S. If technical writing is in your blood, check out our book: "Technical Writing as a Freelance Business"
