Build a Business Around Your Blogged Book
All my posts during April, National Book Blogging Month (NaBoBloMO), have helped you blog a book fast—in just 30 days.

How to Compile a Blogged Anthology in 30 Days or Less
A lot of blog-to-book deals have fallen into the hands of bloggers who haven’t necessarily written great content.
