I suggest that she start by looking into KDP, Kindle Direct Publishing. That is a good first stop to get a book into reader's hands. It will still take a lot of preparation to get it ready to publish through KDP. But I know she can do it!(less)

195: Write Even When It Is Difficult with Beth Bubik

Writer, write even when it is difficult.

Even if you’re facing difficult circumstances and challenges in your life right now.

Write.

There will never be a moment in life when there isn’t some kind of challenge to overcome.

And there will never be a moment when it’s easier to write than it is to make an excuse.

But you have been called to rise up and share your testim
