I’d felt stuck for years, not quite sure about how to go about writing a book. But without a book, I felt my business was not going to deliver on its potential.The idea of a book was forever in my mind as yet another thing I needed to get done, but never quite found the time. This all changed when I was lucky to have a friend give me of copy of Bake a Business Book by Dyan Burgess. Suddenly, I saw how achievable my dream of writing my book could be. Using her Bake a Business Book Platform I was able to publish my book far quicker then I thought possible. Perhaps, as importantly, I can now see that so many other ideas I have, can easily become future releases, by following Dyan’s model. Thank you Dyan.Susan, Brisbane
