I’ve always seen myself as an author and an entrepreneur–Awesome to see the two combined into one.
Definitely a book I have to pick up!

If anyone in this universe can guide writers through the turmoil of publication and a cultural revolution with writing, it’s Hazel!

A MUST for writers new and jaded 🙂

Thanks to all who commented. ‘Authorpreneurship’ has been participant-observation research as I learn the new ways too, and am still challenged by fomatting my comments! Maybe the audio version will be the next challenge? Or smellovision?

I am an aspiring children’s author, and I think that every aspiring author should have at least one copy of this book by their side at all times. I might add, that once I become an established author, my copy of “Authorpreneurship – the business of creativity” will still be by my side.

I am hard-pressed to nominate my favourite feature of this book. I am however, most appreciative of the very concept of an “Authorpreneur”. It is very encouraging to have what I spend so much of my time doing recognised as a business, and not just a creative pursuit. I now have a structured and informed process for going about my business of selling ideas, or Intellectual Property. And given the time of year, I am also well-armed with knowledge and examples to defend my career choice at the the Christmas Lunch Table.

Thank you to Hazel Edwards for paving the way for the next generation of Australian authors.

In most cases, the resources a publisher can or is willing to allocate to publicising your book is limited. Whether we like it it not, nowadays most writers need to work at promoting their books. Edwards’ book Authorpreneurship is the ultimate writer’s handbook – offering invaluable advice on subjects ranging from time management to marketing and remaining sane!

‘Authorpreneurship: The Business of Creativity’ has helped me enormously this last year in the editing, publishing and selling of my book ‘The Hidden Diffability: Discovering Aspergers’, in both e- and p- versions. To have Hazel’s wealth of knowledge and business acumen wrapped up into one package is truly convenient. Highly recommended.

A brilliant book. A must for any aspiring author. What seems overwhelming becomes possible using Hazel’s book.
