Overview

""Change doesn't happen because you wrote something. It happens because you built trust before you asked for attention, because you saw your readers clearly enough to meet them where they are, and because you cared enough to do the hard work of actually understanding how transformation works. This isn't a book about writing. It's a book about mattering. The writing is just the tool."" -Seth Godin, author of This is Marketing Nina Amir shows how words can make a difference through books that spark change, start movements, and make this a better world. Change the World One Book At a Time will teach those who want to write for change how to produce books that serve as potent tools for transformation. Like Becoming a Citizen Activist meets Writing to Change the World, this nonfiction reference book will provide activists, coaches, healers, clergy, speakers, leaders, writers, and anyone who wants to write a book that makes a difference with a comprehensive guide to understanding the change process, building engaged communities around their missions, and writing books that move readers to action. Writing has the potential to effect change. Yet, until now, writers who want to inspire and motivate change with their books have faced a roadblock: a lack of guidance through the process. Nina Amir, seasoned Author Coach and San Francisco Writers Conference track coordinator, removes that obstacle.
