It's easy to get negative in the publishing industry. Rejections. Bad Reviews. Slow Sales. It's hard to keep positive when you think everything is conspiring against you.
Positive Publishing Perspectives is a new publication designed to give you the kick in the butt you need to keep your focus and your attitude in check. Learn how to change your thinking to adapt to the industry. Develop pro-active solutions for problems. And avoid the pity parties of negative people who would rather believe in vast publishing conspiracies than themselves.
The fact is, many people fight the system because they think the system is out to get them. This self-defeating way of thinking leads to an adversarial relationship with potential markets, resources, and contacts. Positive Publishing Perspectives will help you learn how to train yourself to avoid "the martyr syndrome" and insure your message is heard.
All issues will be absolutely free. In fact, readers are invited to copy, reprint, or share articles of interest.
Positive Publishing Perspectives is a division of Bards and Sages.
