There are NO EXCUSES

My name is Peter Lopez and I just published my first book titled Excuses, Excuses, Which One is Yours? I work as a Publishing Consultant for Xulon Press, but writing a book is what has been in my heart for over twenty years. Because my book is centered on people that make excuses, the damage it does to one’s life, and how to live an excuse-free life, I have become aware of my own excuses and the lies I have told myself that I chose to believe. The more research I did on the subject, the fewer excuses I was making in my everyday life and the more ready I was to write my book. So I took a step forward in faith and began writing.

I prayed that my book would help those who read it, but I did not expect it to speak to me during the publishing process. Now here’s the kicker: I have worked with and even published hundreds of authors, but I have spoken to thousands upon thousands of would-be authors and that is the hardest part about my job. In one call there is the “thrill of victory” and with the next call, there is “the agony of defeat.” Whether it’s pride, insecurity, doubt, or fear, despite my reassurances about our author coaching, payment plans, and editorial services, they still come up with excuses. The difference between people that actually publish a book and the people that only want to publish a book is that the ones who do publish refuse to give into their fear and anxiety. They don’t swallow it, they don’t rest on it, and they sure don’t dance to it.

We are always here to encourage you, but sometimes we need to push you toward your destiny and today is that day! Even if you haven’t written a letter, call us and let us guide you; even if you have no money, there are no excuses; we have published thousands of authors with a no-interest payment plan. Even if you think you’re not a great writer, so what? We can edit your book. I had mine edited nearly one hundred times! I refused to allow my excuses to hold me down. There are reasons and there are excuses, but how long will you hold on to both?

I humbly and proudly say that my book has been out for a month as I write this and I appreciate the process of publishing a book more than ever. If you have ever desired to write a book, then write it, publish it, and when you hold it in your hands, you realize your dream has come true. Childbirth is a painful event for a mother, but it all goes away when she holds her precious baby. Thankfully, publishing is not nearly as painful as childbirth, but the concept is the same. It will require a lot out of you, but once you hold that book in your hands and that book has your name on the cover, it all becomes worth it.

There are no excuses!
