Hi Michael, I’m so sorry. It was on Nook but I have just removed it so I can do the Amazon exclusive KDP Select program for the next month. I will be putting it back to Nook and iPad etc later on but I wanted to give that a try. Apologies but I make so little revenue from Nook, I thought this worth a try. Thanks, Joanna

Hey Joanna,

My mind keeps running back to Pentecost, and I’ve got a Nook Color, but I see you only have Kindle capabilities right now…any chance you’re working on a version for BN?

Thanks!

Hi Joanna,
Is From Idea to Book still available on the Kindle? The link on this page takes me to an error page on the amazon site and I can’t find it in the Kindle store.
Thanks.

Hi Joanna,
I’ve been reading “From Idea to Book” and I find it full of encouragement and aha moments and nuggets that remind me of things I know but forget to inject into my daily life. What I really appreciate most is what you wrote about editing. As a copy editor of non-fiction, I always find myself in these conversations of why, why did you do that, why is this wrong, why, why, why. “I didn’t make the rules, I just enforce them” is what I’d like to say. I end up spending more time on teaching the whys and wherefor’s than the actual editing. I think in the future I’ll just hand out a quote from your book, “…to make the book better.”

I’ve also bought “From Book to Market” and really like the way you deliver the goods. It’s another easy read that encourages me to do more. I’m one of these writers who have written mounds and even have them in book form but haven’t published them anywhere. I’ve used them for seminars and given them away, but you kicked my bum and now today I’m on a roll again.

Thanks so much for inspiring me to do more with what I have and believing I have a message to spread, even when I get the looks that say, “Who are you?” I’ll tell you who I am…I am a writer and a very good editor and I can tell you why.
