Formatting your book doesn't have to be expensive. One of the questions I get asked the most is, "What should I use to format my book?" In this video, I break down the only 3 formatting tools I recommend depending on the type of book you're publishing—whether it's a journal, planner, coloring book, nonfiction book, or novel. Hopefully, this helps you choose the right tool and saves you both time and money on your publishing journey. ➡️ Let me know in the comments: Which formatting software are you currently using?

Today I spent another four hours commuting to and from my full-time job. I'm grateful for my career, but that commute reminded me why I'm so passionate about self-publishing. Companies change. Policies change. Life changes. The one thing I can control is building assets that I own. Every book I publish becomes something that has the potential to keep helping readers and generating income long after it's written. That's why I'm investing more of my time into publishing instead of relying on my career alone. I'm not trying to escape my job. I'm trying to create more options for my family's future. If you've been putting off writing your first book—or you've already published one but haven't fully committed to growing it—let this be your reminder that every book is another asset you're building for yourself. 👇What motivates you to publish? Is it extra income, sharing your knowledge, building your business, leaving a legacy, or something else? I'd love to hear your reason in the comments.
