One of the biggest struggles authors face isn’t publishing the book… It’s getting PEOPLE to actually SEE IT.

When you post inside the community, only a small percentage of members may actually see it or engage with it. But when I post it as the group owner, it typically gets significantly more visibility because more members receive notifications and interact with the content. This option is great for: ✔️ New book launches ✔️ Kindle promotions ✔️ Getting more page views ✔️ Driving additional downloads or sales 🔥 𝗢𝗻𝗲-𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗙𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁 + 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗘𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹 — $50 This is the BIG visibility boost.

It’s time to put yourself out there. Share whatever you’re working on or proud of right now. This community is full of creators, authors, and entrepreneurs, and sometimes the best thing we can do is help each other get a little more visibility. 💡 IDEAS ON WHAT YOU COULD SHARE: • Yourself and what you do • Your Skool community • A book you're writing or recently published • A project you're building • A shoutout to another member • A video, post, or resource • Affiliate links (yes, those are allowed) The goal is simple: help our members get seen. Just one request so this stays valuable for everyone. 👉 1 RULE: If you share something, please also leave a thoughtful or helpful comment on someone else’s post. Support goes both ways, and when we all participate, the whole community benefits. Now let’s see what everyone is building 👇

I've been late with posting one of these updates, but late is better than never. The May calendar is finally updated to reflect all of this month's premium member calls. I also just updated the classroom to include last week's live call on paperback cover creation. ➡️ Also, I just wanted to announce that there are going to be some upcoming changes later this month to the classroom. I'm planning to consolidate a lot of the content so that the classroom doesn't feel so cluttered and has a clearer path of where to go. I will be keeping you posted When those changes go live.

Atticus vs. Affinity: Which Book Formatting Tool Should You Use? One question that comes up a lot with self-publishing is: What tool should I use to format my book? Two options worth looking at are Atticus and Affinity, and they both have their place depending on the type of book you’re creating. Atticus is a one-time investment, but it’s very beginner-friendly. If you’re creating a text-heavy book like a nonfiction book, workbook, journal with written sections, or even a novel, Atticus is probably going to feel much easier to use. Here’s where Atticus really shines: - Beginner-friendly with a low learning curve - Great for text-heavy books - Helpful for nonfiction, workbooks, journals, and novels - Pretty self-explanatory once you get inside the tool - Lets you create both print and ebook files - Allows you to include full-page images when needed - Saves time if you don’t want to design every page from scratch Affinity, on the other hand, is better if you want a more custom, design-heavy book. Think: highly visual workbooks, planners, full-color interiors, activity books, coffee table-style books, or books where you want more control over the layout. Here’s where Affinity stands out: - Free to use - Better for custom, design-oriented books - Gives you more control over page layouts - Helpful for books with lots of images, graphics, or visual elements - Better for full-color interiors or highly styled pages - More flexible if you want every page to look different - Great option if you’re willing to learn a more advanced design tool But here’s the tradeoff: Affinity has a steeper learning curve. It gives you more design freedom, but that also means you’ll need to understand more about layouts, margins, bleeds, image placement, exports, and print setup. So my simple recommendation is this: If you want easy, fast, beginner-friendly formatting, go with Atticus. If you want custom design control and you’re willing to learn the tool, try Affinity.
