Goodreads asked Sandra Wendel:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Sandra Wendel I talk with first-time authors every day by phone or email. They always says, "I've never done this before." Well, sure. And I am here to help you navigate the author/publisher path to publishing. In between the writing and the publishing parts is the editing. Never skip this step.

Because I found myself telling new authors the same advice, I decided to summarize it all in this book. I also teach classes on how to write, publish, and market a book at our community college. I know your frustrations. I know you feel vulnerable. I have the best advice for you, and I know you'll feel much more confident going into the publishing part when you understand how editors help you put your best book forward.
