Authors, What are your tools for success?<\/p>\n

Author Success<\/b><\/h2>\n

I’ve noticed that tools make a big difference in my life as a novelist.<\/p>\n

For me, these days, I need a working computer, plenty of ways to get inspired, and quiet time to write. I also need and have supportive people around me who can give me useful feedback, hugs, and high fives when I need them.<\/p>\n

How about you? What are your tools for success?<\/p>\n

Write me and share your definition of success.\u00a0<\/b>For those of you on Twitter, share it there too and tag it with the hashtag: #writersuccess. You can also tag me:\u00a0@beth_barany.<\/a><\/p>\n

What’s Next<\/b><\/p>\n

In the last 9 months I’ve been transitioning from a coach who helped all kinds of writers to a coach who helps only novelists.<\/p>\n

To that end, I’m launching my new program for novelists at the start of May.\u00a0More on that below.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\"6Tools of Success — 6 of Disks
\n<\/b><\/h2>\n

Today I want to share about the tools of success, the 6 of Disks.<\/p>\n

Whenever I start something new, or I’m at a new stage in my writing, I gather my resources — mentally, emotionally, spiritually, intellectually, physically, and ancestrally.<\/p>\n

I’m doing final edits on my next romance novella. What I need most are clear and simple next steps during what feels like a complicated process. So I’ve set up some for myself: fix the ending; take care of the typos; and draft the book blurb. Oh yeah, gather ideas and images for the cover to give to my cover designer.<\/p>\n

Take stock of your tools of success, your resources. What do you already have in your life? And what do you still need?<\/p>\n

Share that with me or come join us on the live call later tomorrow and share then! Post your questions here:\u00a0Facebook Fan Page here.<\/a><\/p>\n
