The other day I got a letter every published author dreads.

Very soon my book, Abundant Gifts, will go out of print and be unavailable for the foreseeable future.

What Have You Learned Lately?
by Diane Eble
I listened to an interview recently with a woman who works with very successful people. She outlined several characteristics she saw in common that she thought led to their success.
The first thing she mentioned was that they were always learning. They were always looking to find out what other successful people were […]
What’s Love Got to Do with Writing?
Everyone’s talking about energy these days, what with the popularity of The Secret and all this talk about Law of Attraction.
Seems it’s all based on the idea that everything is made up of energy, that is, particles that vibrate at certain frequencies. Like frequencies attract like. So, if you’re happy, you vibrate on a […]
Confessions of a Lazy (Or Is It Smart?) Writer
One of the things I’m doing more and more—and loving it!—is repurposing my content.
It’s great fun to take an idea and create an article out of it. Then, to think of other ways to use it.
Recently, I decided I would expand the content of one of my articles into a teleseminar. I would expand each […]

A New Way of Seeing
I heard someone talk about a book called Change the Way You See Everything: Through Asset-Based Thinking by Kathryn D. Cramer and Hank Wasiak.
The book contrast two different ways of looking at yourself, at other people, and at events and circumstances.
There is Deficit-Based Thinking (DBT) that focuses on problems, weaknesses, what can’t be done. And […]
Can You Really Make a Living from a Book?
This is a question that consumed me for several years after I woke up to the real economics of book publishing. (As in, the average royalty for a book comes down to $1.17 or so, net.)
I’m happy to report my conclusions: that yes you can make a good living from a book. There is a […]
We Met through Someone’s Mere Words
I am pondering two things: death, and the power of words.
Death, because a man whom I’ve been reading for years, Gary Halbert, passed away on Sunday.
Gary Halbert was one of my copywriting mentors, though I never met him in person. I read his famous Gary Halbert Letter as often as […]
Out of Print Book—Resurrected!
Fortune seems to be smiling on our Lieurance group. Yesterday Taryn wrote about how every once in a blue moon, an absolute gift presents itself.
Such a thing may have happened to me, too.
