Branding for Authorpreneurs: Title Reveal and Release Date

Writing the nonfiction guide has been one of the most exciting and, at times, most challenging experiences of my career. Today, I finally get to share the official title and release date of the first book in my “Essentials for Authorpreneurs” series.

If you’ve been following along, you know this year has been a juggling act between speculative fiction and nonfiction projects. Switching back and forth has kept me busy, but it’s also pushed my nonfiction release a little behind schedule. The good news? After over two years of work, countless drafts, and several major rewrites, I’m finally approaching the finish line.

The manuscript is done. I have locked in the subtitle, which has gone through more versions than I like to admit. If you’ve ever worked on a book, you know how titles and subtitles can change, especially when you change the focus of your book. Just when you think you’ve nailed it, a new version sneaks in. But after much back and forth, I’m thrilled with the result.

Book title and release date

The complete title of my book is: Branding for Authorpreneurs: How to Craft Your Author Persona and Tell Your Brand Story to Your Audience.

And the release date? Mark your calendars—October 22nd.

I won’t lie: I’m both nervous and excited about sharing this book with you. It’s been through so many iterations that seeing it finally take shape feels surreal. Besides my shifting the book's focus, the cover has also given me headaches. My designer and I wanted a design that didn’t just look good, but also reflected the essence of this guide and fit with my own brand. That process took time, but I know it will be worth it when you see the finished product.

This book was hard to write, and seeing it published will be both a relief and a major accomplishment. Soon, I’ll reveal the cover, and I can’t wait to hear what you think.
