Self Publishing Podcast #140 – Nonfiction with Steve Scott




The Story Studio Podcast - Writing, Storytelling, and Marketing Advice for Writers & Business show

Summary: The vast majority of SPP episodes so far have been applied mostly to fiction authors, which makes sense because Johnny, Sean and Dave are all primarily fiction authors and most of us watching/listening at home are the same. But, still, with Smarter Artist (Sterling & Stone’s nonfiction imprint) constantly growing and succeeding and more and more writers either dabbling in nonfiction or fully embracing it, it’s about time to show nonfiction some more love on SPP! Enter Steve Scott, habits expert, kindle marketing superhero, and nonfiction-writing extraordinaire. And he had some wonderful tips and tricks to share with us SPP listeners on how to outline, write, launch, and market a nonfiction book. Of course, no matter what you write, this episode has plenty of gems that make it well worth listening to. Of special note, among other things are: How Steve comes up with his nonfiction book ideas What his new daily podcast is all about, and why you may want to check it out What’s working for Steve in the area of marketing, and what’s not, and why How Steve uses his email list and the 99-cent price point to sell more books How he uses his habits expertise to help him improve as a writer
