Six Images of a Published Author

3 Min Read


Writing is a muscle, and publication is a marathon. If you buy into such metaphors, you’ll want to take a leaf from the Olympians’ book.

To prepare for competitions, elite athletes regularly imagine the curve of a track or the impact of a landing. Visualising their sport apparently lights up the same parts of the brain that they activate during physical training. They'd even use their well-worn imagery in an actual game to snap out of negative thinking and focus on the finish line.

Between staring at the blinking cursor in a mostly empty document and looking for ways to publish your own book, you're bound to second-guess yourself. Self-doubt happens to the best of us. So whenever you stumble, try getting back on track with one of these images of a published author.

The Speaker

You live to enlighten and motivate—and so do many others. You give your audience something to flip through so your teachings don’t drown in a vast ocean of digital content.

The Optimist

When your current publisher closes one door, you open another one . . . into a world where you have the support to turn your manuscript into a book.

The Achiever

Thanks to your impeccable planning and the publishing services you used, guests are holding copies of your company’s commemorative coffee table book on the day of the corporate anniversary.

The Specialist

You are not everyone’s cup of tea, and that’s okay. What you brew up is exactly what a handful of readers have been looking for.

The Jump Starter

You dust off your old work, spruce it up, and reprint it, making some old fans ecstatic and piquing the interest of fans in the making.

The Pathfinder

You want the best for your first book, so you go for the publishing route that lets you create your book the way you’ve always seen it in your head.

If none of these fit you, don't sweat it. Take inspiration from them and make your own image. Throw in a few awards and/or a screen adaptation. Better yet, you can sign up for a copy of the AuthorHouse publishing guide. You'll also get a toll-free call from a publishing consultant who can help you visualise the self-publishing process more clearly.
