Aspiring authors often ask me how long it will take to write and publish their book. When they weren’t satisfied with my “it depends” answer, I drafted this timeline as a conversation piece.

After all, when a book gets shipped to your doorstep or you see a social post announcing another book release, it seems like it should be so easy. If they can do it, why not you? But… how do you get started? When is the best time to start marketing a non-fiction book? 

Friend, you have an inspiring message or story people need to hear. And when you pour your time, tears and soul into this book, it’s worth doing well.

May this timeline and email mini course help shape your book journey, so you can start planning your milestones that lead to holding that book in your hands.
