...easy to follow and full of insightful yet practical information that I found very interesting and helpful. I've come out of reading this with a better understanding of what's involved in writing a self help book and how to go about planning and writing it. - NetGalley * Netgalley * I learned a lot from How to Write a Self-Help Book by Ginny Carter...It covers the book writing process right from planning the structure of your book before you even put pen to paper, all the way to publishing and marketing. It was a treat that the author gave examples of books to demonstrate each format. This is a very specific book designed for a fledgling self-help author, and if that’s you (like me) you'll find it invaluable. - NetGalley * Netgalley *

I’ve read a lot of books on writing nonfiction but I was very impressed with how much I learned from this one - everything is presented clearly and succinctly and is full of useful tips and guidance. We learn about planning and outlining the book, choosing a topic, considering the intended reader, writing persuasively, finding your voice, as well as editing and publishing. It is very well-written and not at all dry, and was a very enjoyable read. I highly recommended this book to anyone who wants to write nonfiction, not just self-help. - NetGalley
