Becoming "The One" While Writing...

by Bonnie Bruderer
(Sausalito, California)

Staying

Staying "The One" While Finding "The One"

My experience with self-publishing was a very positive experience. I have deliberated, as I am sure most authors do, as to this being the right route for me. At the time I published my first book: Becoming: "The One", I had been working for Tony Robbins, the motivational speaker. His personal assistant at the time recommended this route for me.

I use IUniverse, and had a pleasant experience. I found that they met the deadlines that they said they would. I was also fairly amazed, when I told them how I wanted the cover to look, and they nailed it.

Now, in learning more about the publishing industry, there is mixed information regarding self-publishing. I got both of my books picked up by an Australian publisher, and didn't listen to any of the nonsense. I believe that if you set your mind to something, and are dedicated, and do the work, you can make anything happen in life.

I have tremendous goals for this book, over the next few years. If you have a dream to become a writer, which most people do, I recommend getting your work out there.
