Jumpstart Your Publishing Dreams covers the essential skills for every writer to be published and uses the word "publish" in the broadest possible sense including books, online writing, and printed magazines. Each chapter includes a mixture of personal storytelling from the author combined with specific and practical advice for the beginning and experienced writer. Each chapter ends with a section for the reader to Dig Deeper (learn from other resources) and Awaken Your Dreams (apply the content to their own writing).
