Successful Indie Author

Are you the writer you want to be? The hard-hitting while rewarding reality of writing and publishing is contained within bite-sized snippets of wisdom from Craig Martelle after publishing nearly two-hundred titles and selling over a million books. Craig has done things the hard way, so you don't have to. It's nice to know that someone has walked the path that you want to take, pointing out the pitfalls along the way.From Kevin J. Anderson: "This book is filled with numerous short and digestible gems of Craig's philosophy, his suggestions, and alternatives you may not have considered. These vital ideas may seem simple and obvious, and yet you need to internalize them. Read all of these nuggets, and if you "get" only a tenth of them and implement them, then you'll be a richer writer, publisher, and human being for it."Join the growing number of successful indie authors. There's plenty of room in this parade of entertainment. Readers don't care where the stories come from, only that they are entertained. I'm retired from the Marine Corps, spending time both as enlisted and as an officer. Then I went to law school, took my law degree into business consulting where I became a business diagnostics specialist and leadership coach. I retired from that at age 52 because I was away from home way too much. That's when I started writing full time, and I have not looked back since. This is a great ride! I have a variety of stories now since I've been at this for a little while, lots of short stories so you can see if you like my style. I have a number of best selling novels in categories that matter to me - space opera, military scifi, Space Marine, colonization, and genetic engineering. As a serial daydreamer, it's nice to finally get the stories on paper (virtual and digital paper, that is).Visit my web page, craigmartelle.com for the latest posts and updates or find me on Facebook, Author Craig Martelle.
