I like the writing, especially the opening. But why the whole piece in italics? Half way down my eyes were tired and I gave up. Anyone else relate? I've always felt italics should be used sparingly to emphasize something or suggest a thought for a character in fiction. when everything has the same emphasis, it's exhausting, as it is in life.
Nice! Good job, I self published 3 philosophical essays and had zero traction because the truth sometimes is hard to digest…
I’m all about the awakening of humanity on every level!
I’m trying my luck in writing à spiritual adventure mixing excitement and lots of lessons and growth! I think it’s not too shabby!
Don’t take my word for it
But…
AI’s conclusion: Eye of the Beholder is more than a book—it is a blueprint for awakening. Through a compelling adventure and deep spiritual insights, it aims to shift perspectives and ignite transformation in readers.
Thank you so much for this Kristina. I haven’t even had a chance to yet to dive into your content and I can tell that it is going to be an opportunity for tremendous growth in my writing and Substack journey - your energy is very pure and clear!
Hi Kristina - Tuesday I have clients from 9a-8p - I can chat sometime between 12&1 est or between 8:15p&10p. Regarding the membership - i just got back from a soundbath and I promised myself I would just relax when I got home. In other words I am not sure if I have or not - are you able to tell on your end? If not is there a link you can send - I really appreciate you! Cindy
Yikes, I thought I replied to this. Tuesday I have 12p-1 and after 8p EST. Regarding the club membership, I’m not sure I’m a little bit overwhelmed. I know I subscribed to your channel, but if there’s a link to join a membership, I’m happy to do it.
Great article with very helpful information! Thank you Maira 🙏
I went with a hybrid publisher instead of self-publishing. Yes there is a cost but it means 1) I don’t have to figure out all the ins and outs of self-publishing and 2) I don’t have to pitch traditional publishers and wait for one to say yes.
So far my experience with Ignite Press has been amazing. Estimated launch date for my book (From Gutted to Glorious: Transform Your Grief and Rediscover Your Joy) is September of this year 😀
Hi Jennifer, I knew you would reply 😁 as I knew you're writing your book. There are some more from the Club.
Ignite Press is your hybrid publisher then, 👏🎉 congrats. Happy everything went well.
Have you seen my interview with Tanmeet? Similar to you approaching grief for her it was approaching her son's diagnosis (and future death). Would love to see you there in the comments as your book titles for together very well! You can meet her in April for a masterclass about sharing vulnerability and making your mess your message. Is your manuscript ready yet or is the editor working on it?
Would love to hear more about Ignite Press and their hybrid approach. Thanks for adding this to the conversation here 🙏
Really loved this interview💙 I "met" Dr. Tanmeet Sethi in an author masterclass last year and her perspective and the way she looks at life and hardship is simply amazing!
Her book is also amazing! For anyone who hasn't read it yet, make it the next book you order 🤓
Hi Gabby, 👋 you might remember my interview with Evelyn Skye, NYT bestselling author, she told me pre orders wouldn't be a thing anymore. That's why I think with Amazon KDP this approach is so important. Marketing really helps! No matter how awesome you book is I'm the prelaunch phase you can do many things to market your book before its official launch. Book Launch Club, reaching out to a list of friends and family, right keywords, influencers ?, other book friends, prelaunch event, bonuses, exclusive goodies etc.
Readers want to see and feel the real you. Same with writing books and self publishing them. We can open our own doors. Doors we never thought would open. But once we have the 🗝️ we can open them and see what's behind them

Hi Cindy, let's meet on Tuesday and chat :) Could you access the Club membership yet?

I’d need to be a Benjamin Button to knock off 51 years, but I do still love to dad dance on occasion!

Such an amazing post! I had no idea about the importance of the preselling period 👀💕
