Morgan James Publishing

The Social Network of The Entrepreneurial Publisher

One of the qualities common to successful nonfiction books is simplicity. They are based on simple ideas compellingly communicated by their titles, their covers and their marketing. So make your ideas clear, compelling and promotable, but keep them simple.

David, as Ronald so aptly puts it - well said! We tend to massage our words to death...when all people really want to know is how does this help me.

Hmmm...If only it was that...eh...simple...
Food for thought for a cronic super-nerd :)

David, I appreciate the reminder. You also demonstrate it well in you 3 simple, to-the-point sentences.

Nice David. I tell my clients this every day and it's good that they can hear it coming from you. Yes, authors, bloggers and others...don't be too perfect or it will never get done.

Amen! So many writers and entrepreneurs (including me) are chronic over-thinkers. It can make things much harder than they need to be for all concerned.
