In response to Platform posted by BrianTubbs:


'Based on what I see in the publishing world, an aspiring nonfiction writer better have a national platform'

Barb will be able to do the national platform bit, but one other thing that I heard is important is the 'elevator pitch'. A simple two sentance, delivered in 30 seconds pitch, saying what you book's message is. If you cannot condense it to that, then your idea is too vague. So maybe start on the pitch until Barb gets to the national platform???
