You Are Not Only An Author, You're A Business
Writing a book is hard.
Promoting your book is harder.
Handling the financial aspects of your book? Even harder and more complicated.
Among these three areas, in my experience, most authors know the least about the business aspects of their book.
We're going to help you solve that.
Welcome to the Power Writers Report, our weekly update, packed full of powerful writing tips, productivity tools,
platform-building strategies, author best practices, resources, and free stuff.

Is Uncle Sam Looking For YOU??
In less than a month, Uncle Sam is going to come a-callin', demanding his fair share of your money.
It's about this time every year when I begin scrambling, trying to think of creative--yet legal--ways to keep what rightfully belongs to me.
In the same way, this time of year, many authors, and authors-to-be, begin scrambling, trying to figure out where their book profits and expenses fit into their tax situation.
Myriad questions suddenly bombard them:
- What can I write off as a business expense?
- What are my options for a home office?
- What's the best way to track my income?
- Should I separate my personal and book income?
- What is the best business structure for me?
- Do I need to file a trade name?
- Should I charge tax when I sell books?
You cannot afford to assume you know the answers to these questions.
