EPISODE 500 - Dominick Domasky - A.I. and Authors, Publishing A Book in 2025, Celebrating A MilestoneAI's Role in Content CreationDavid and Dominick discussed the role of AI in content creation, particularly in writing and podcasting. They expressed concerns about the reliance on AI tools, which they believe can lead to the production of "beige" content that lacks personal stories and deep connections. They emphasized the importance of human creativity and the value of personal experiences in writing. They also discussed the potential pitfalls of using AI to generate content, such as the lack of authenticity and the inability to capture the essence of a personal story. They concluded that while AI can be a useful tool, it should not replace the creative mind of an author.Consistency, Authenticity, and Networking SuccessDominick emphasized the importance of consistency and authenticity in achieving success, using the example of a friend who appeared on Oprah. He stressed that success requires putting in the same effort that led to success elsewhere and being consistent in sharing one's message. He also highlighted the importance of networking and reaching out to the right audience, using the example of a fantasy book author who found more success at a comic-con than at a book event. David agreed with these points, noting that the author's ability to connect with people at the comic-con was key to their success.Persistence and Continuous ImprovementDominick and David discussed the importance of persistence and continuous improvement in their respective endeavors. Dominick shared his experiences with various events and how he learned from them, emphasizing the value of networking and adapting to different situations. David then shared a quote from Theodore Roosevelt, "Do what you can with what you have where you are," and how it relates to authors. They both agreed on the importance of sharing one's journey, both the successes and struggles, to inspire and connect with others. David expressed his appreciation for Dominick's willingness to share his experiences and journey, which he believes helps others feel more comfortable in their own struggles.Support, Motivation, and Podcast GrowthIn the meeting, David and Dominick discussed the importance of reaching out to others for support and motivation. David expressed his gratitude towards Dominick for his consistent support and guidance. They also discussed the upcoming 500th episode of their podcast and the need for more authors to be featured. David encouraged Dominick to send him new authors who have never been on a podcast for a great first experience. They also touched on the topic of sharing content and the benefits of evergreen content. The conversation ended with both parties wishing each other a happy holiday season.https://www.motivationchamps.com/___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

This week on the podcast I am talking all about the process of self-publishing my book "How to Master the Business of Yoga". I released my book in September of 2023 and wanted to share the entire process from idea to creation to actually publishing it. In this episode, I talk about what the writing process was like, why having help was key for me to actually getting this project done, editing the book, finding someone who could format and design the cover, releasing and marketing the book, and everything that I learned along the way. Writing and publishing a book is a goal for many people, but the idea of publishing a book can be really daunting. I hope this episode leaves you feeling empowered to turn your idea into reality!

If you're a writer, you've probably experienced this frustrating thing: all kinds of people feel free to give you advice. Usually, it's not because they're experts, or bestselling authors, or even avid readers. It's because their one friend ffrom high school is a successful author, and maybe you should talk to them to get help. Or because they're no expert, but they've heard you should write every day to succeed. Do you write every day? No? Yikes. (Neither does your host, writing coach Karena Akhavein, Ph.D.) Or because they care about you, and it's really hard, maybe impossible, to succeed as a writer. Or because you asked them their opinion on the rough draft of your book, and they don't read much, but they really don't like that genre so maybe you should rewrite it to sound more like Stephen King? Writing advice is everywhere. And more often than not, though advice comes from a good place and has some golden nuggets troughout, much writing advice can actually be harmful to writers in the long run and hold them back from their writing goals and their dream of being a successful published author. Tune into this uplifting episode of the How to be an Author podcast to dissect which wriitng advice is helpful, which can be harmful, and which ideas and concepts can actually move the needle in your writing career.

Today we have an exciting topic to delve into. In this episode, we will be exploring the intriguing question of how authors should treat the costs associated with their publishers when it comes to their taxes. Are these expenses considered straightforward deductions, or is there more to it? Join me as we navigate this gray area and uncover the implications for authors and aspiring authors alike. We'll discuss different scenarios based on the intention behind publishing the book, the costs involved, and whether treating them as expenses or assets is more advantageous. But remember, this is just for educational purposes. To get specific advice, it's important to consult with your CPA or tax preparer. So grab your headphones and get ready for an enlightening discussion. Let's dive in!   What you'll hear in this episode: [01:40] Questions on author expenses and tax deductions. [04:19] Marketing activities planned, prepare for accounting discussion. [07:32] Considering book inventory and marketing expenses When deciding whether to keep inventory of a book and sell it, there are a few considerations to make. If your intention is to use the book as marketing collateral, such as giving it away at events or conferences, it can be viewed as a marketing expense, similar to business cards. However, if you plan to sell the book beyond the first year, it may be considered an asset rather than an expense, as books don't expire after a year. In summary, the decision of whether to keep inventory and sell the book depends on your marketing strategy and long-term goals for the publication. [09:42] Consider alternative options and discuss with accountant.

  Let's tackle the elephant in the room for aspiring writers: the daunting odds of success in the writing world. Many use this as an excuse to abandon their dreams, citing the challenges, rejections, and the seemingly improbable nature of making it as a writer. But here's the reality check: amid these odds, some authors thrive and succeed, proving it is possible. It's essential to dispel the myth of overnight success and sheer luck. Success in writing, whether through traditional publishing or self-publishing, demands hard work, sacrifice, dedication, continuous improvement, and strategic efforts. Some frustrated writers point at successful authors and chalk up their success to "luck." Luck, in this context, is the result of preparation meeting opportunity. In this week's episode of the 'How to Be an Author' podcast, we'll delve into the strategies to tilt luck in your favor. My course, 'From Idea to Published in 6 Months,' offers the blueprint that has secured publishing deals, contest wins, media features, and viral social media success for my clients. It's time to shift the narrative and understand that you don't want to be an average writer. And here's the exciting twist: in crafting narratives, we, as writers, need to realize that readers thrive on the idea of insurmountable odds. When we instill our characters with low chances of success, we create depth, urgency, and a human story that resonates with readers.  In today's episode of the How to be an Author podcast with writing coach Karena Akhavein, we're diving into the fascinating question of the odds of success for writers and the art of crafting your own luck in the fiercely competitive world of publishing.  Get ready for a deep dive into the psychology of writing, as we share invaluable insights on writing success. Whether you're a seasoned wordsmith or just starting your literary adventure, this episode is a must-listen for anyone eager to unlock the secrets of becoming a successful author.
