#Memoirists, do you have a calll to action for your future readers? If so, you might be writing a hybrid memoir that lends itself to important takeaways. These kinds of memoirs are actually very desirable, so if you're going this direction, bump it up!

I don’t know any #authors who are able to live solely off the fruits of their #writing alone. The career writers and even the best-selling authors I know are all teaching, speaking, editing, or consulting.

ALWAYS look up books a publishing company is promoting as success stories. For the company charging $10k-$90k to publish your book, I couldn't find half their books on Amazon & found a couple published 6 mos ago, that sold few to NO copies. PLEASE BE CAREFUL & do your homework!!
