Description

Many of us dream of becoming published authors. We imagine how it would feel to hold our own book or see it on the shelf at our favorite bookstore. The good news is you can achieve your dream by writing about your hometown.

Chronicle your area's history. Write about a significant building or local celebrity. Zero in on an interesting neighborhood or time period. Publish a collection of ghost stories or share insider tips and recommendations in a travel book about your town or region.

Hometown is a complete guide to writing and publishing a local interest book. Topics include:

  • Choosing the right subject, scope and slant for your book
  • Structuring your project so that you actually finish the manuscript
  • An honest comparison of traditional and self-publishing options
  • Step-by-step instructions for publishing on Amazon
  • Specific ways to capitalize on local authors' inherent marketing advantages
  • How to establish your online presence
  • How much you might realistically earn in your book's first year and beyond
