The idea that authors can’t make money is bull****.
And no, you don’t have to be famous or have a huge online following.
In less than a year I’ve made over $150,000 from self-published books. Plenty of my friends have made far more, all writing on topics so small and targeted a traditional publisher wouldn’t consider it. Many of them started—just like me—without an audience...more

The App Design Handbook Nathan Barry Pdf Files
Authority is an overview of all the steps to take when self-publishing a non-fiction e-book.
At $249 for the complete edition (now $299) it is not cheap, so I started reading the book and the extra materials with high expectations.
I've been a long follower of Nathan Barry, I love his work and his transparency.
The book is in line with what you can read on his blog, oddly enough however, it actually contains less detail then his blog posts covering similar topics.

I'm immediately skeptical of any book claiming to explain how you can make a bunch of money writing a book. It seems destructively and self-servingly circular, like the Worm Ouroboros perpetually eating its own tail. Nathan Barry's book is different.
First off, he doesn't just tell you how to write a book. He tells you how to prepare, market, and sell a self-published book on a topic you're intimately familiar with. This isn't 'become a novelist and get rich!' or 'write a book just like this one..more

Once you create a product how do you get people to buy it? the answer is through teaching. if you start teaching, people will listen.Then you never have to pay for advertising. Your audience comes to you.
What’s the most valuable thing you have to teach? That’s what the blog posts should include. These posts are designed to get people interested in you and your book.

It really feels like a book that encourages you to bend the truth of how you really feel to profit from others’ ignorance. At the same time, I struggle with impostor syndrome and the author *clearly* does not. Who am I to write a book? I’m qualified to write on a lot of topics, and hyper-qualified for a few. But it doesn’t always feel that way. So when the author gives *a lot* of really actionable tips to do this or that to improve your credibility or get quotes or reviews from people, it feels..more
I might have given it more stars if not for having read Launch by Jeff Walker first. Launch goes into much greater detail and has a similar formula. My biggest disappointment was that I sat through a webinar jointly held with Nathan Barry and Scrivener Coach's Joseph Michael. The topic of using this for fiction came up multiple times and both indicated it was applicable to fiction. My advice is that this book has solid utility for nonfiction (not as strong as Launch), but not so much for fiction..more
Awesome and filled with tactical tips to crush self-publishing (ebook or video course or both :)
Great little book. A good reminder of all the things I know but I'm not quite doing yet. A big takeaway that I keep hearing over and over again is to:
1. Be consistent - write x words every day. Keep a list of topics to write about (especially if you're writing a book) and write about it
2. Build a list - creating content is part of the equation. Getting emails is the other part. The best way to get people in the door is to offer something something of value. This could be a chapter in a book. For..more

If you are in high-tech and want to write a book, go ahead and use this as a guide. But NOT appropriate for fiction self-publishing. Also, Barry's approach that you don't have to BE an expert, only to be PERCEIVED as one turned me off completely. Because basically, he's encouraging people to be snake oil salespeople and disregard actual knowledge or expertise.

This is a well done book. The ideas in it are good, I've heard a lot of it before in other books. It also has more step-by-step instructions for technical things rather than simply principles (I should have guessed from the title). Overall, I thought it was worth the read.
Aug 26, 2018Beth Bunchman rated it it was ok · review of another edition
Nice summary but I feel like I've seen more detail in Books like Walker's Launch. And this book feels like a continuous sales pitch for his products and affiliates while ignoring other viable options. Also at 4 years old some of the content feels outdated.
Down to earth guide on going from zero to self publishing. Addresses the business side as well as the nuts and bolts of how to do it.
You'll learn strategies and tactics for publishing your own work online and making money from it.

Authority is a masterwork and must-read for anyone looking to self-publish their books. Barry's writing style is very down to earth and conversational, offering sage advice on the process of writing to launching a book. I feel empowered by the tips Barry offered in this 175 page book and look forward to implementing them in my entrepreneurial pursuits as an author. Be aware that Barry mostly focuses on non-fiction as a means to create a sustainable income from self-publishing and I have doubts f..more

I got a free copy of the book with a 30-day trial of the authors email service ConvertKit.
I really enjoyed the simplicity of the book. It doesn't make anything seem easy, but it does make it seem very possible to self-publish a book and earn a good amount of income at its launch and overtime.
I would recommend this to anyone interested in creating a digital book to coincide with a blog or bigger offering.

Contains valuable insight for writing, formatting, marketing, and selling a self-published book. While this warrants 5 stars, I'm deducting one because it could be further edited. The book even begins with half of a page about Marco Polo that he immediately tells you to dismiss as irrelevant, making you ask 'What did I pay for?' The style is conversational, but not vigorous. Get to the point.

Great book about becoming a self published author, and how to maximize your audience, and income. Recommended for anyone wanting to branch into educational products marketplace, or just interested how a book author can live very well from their writing in this day and age.
Mar 31, 2014Jessi rated it really liked it
This book is great for those looking to write a book and make some money, be successful and do it all yourself. I really enjoyed reading this, it's quick and easy to understand. While the writing portion is small, there's tons about how to market, sell, and keep customers for your products.
Really useful strategies for people looking to write and independently publish a book. It took a couple chapters to draw me in, but then it hit full stride.
This book was $150? wow. Glad I picked it up from a friend.

This is just an amazing book that every aspiring author should read.
Build authority by blogging, then creating a mailing list, then self publish a book.
