I am happy to welcome my friend and fellow author Nonnie Jules back as a guest. Nonnie is the President of Rave Reviews Book Club and the owner of 4WillsPublishing.
Hello, and welcome to the 5th day of my BETTER PARENTING, BETTER KIDS Blog
Tour! I'm so happy to be here today with my friend Bruce and all his
guests! What a wonderful crowd you all are!
Today I will be
answering a question which I was asked a year ago from an interviewer, and it
involves the writing process. I hope that someone can take something from this
message:Q. What advice would you give anyone who wishes to write a book which is to help and guide other people?
A. When you’re writing a book that is meant to help and guide others, my advice would be to really know what you’re talking about before you put something out there. Do your research, as much as possible so that the methods you are presenting are tried and true. I didn’t have to research much for "THE GOOD MOMMIES’ GUIDE TO RAISING (ALMOST) PERFECT DAUGHTERS, 100 Tips On Raising Daughters Everyone Can't Help But Love!"… because I lived the book. I taught every tip in the book, and those are the kinds of books I generally like to read, when there's advice being shared because of situations that the author has lived, and experienced themselves. Not saying that this is a bad thing, but when authors are giving advice on a subject such as parenting, I personally would not receive that information well if it were to come from someone who wasn’t a parent. That’s just my two-cents. Now my debut novel which I released in November of 2013, {DAYDREAM’S DAUGHTER, NIGHTMARE’S FRIEND} is a work of fiction and I had to do tons of research. But, even in that, I wanted to be extremely thorough with the details of the book and the city that it’s set out of, so I visited that city many, many times just so that I would appear to have some knowledge of what I was sharing, even though it was all fictitious.
That's my writing tip for the day. I hope it has helped you in some way inject a bit more love and passion into your own writing as that is truly what makes our writing great.
Make it a great day, people. The choice is always yours.
Thanks again, Bruce!

AUTHOR
BIO:
Nonnie Jules is the mother of two beautifully kind
daughters, who along with the help of her husband, have turned out to be two of
the greatest assets to this world. THE GOOD MOMMIES’
GUIDE TO RAISING (ALMOST) PERFECT DAUGHTERS is her first published
piece of work and two weeks after publication, it hit Amazon’s Top 100 list,
where it reached the #7 mark. With all the violence which is being
exhibited by some children today, it is her vision and goal to get THE
GOOD MOMMIES’ GUIDE…into the hands of everyone who breathes around a
child. She feels the only way we can make this happen, is if we
are all working from a common blueprint. Ms. Jules strongly
believes that every opportunity we are given with a child, should be a teaching
one for us and a learning one for them.
So far, Nonnie has authored two other books: a
novel which she released in November of 2013, entitled “DAYDREAM’S
DAUGHTER, NIGHTMARE’S FRIEND” and “SUGARCOATIN’ IS
FOR CANDY & PACIFYIN’ IS FOR KIDS!” where she shares her
no-holds-barred style of teaching us all about support and social media.
Her second parenting guide {THE GOOD MOMMIES’ GUIDE TO BULLY-PROOF
KIDS} is due for release the beginning of January, 2015 and the sequel to
her debut novel, DAYDREAM’S DAUGHTER, shortly after. (Both
have been delayed due to her extensive workload with RRBC).
She is a fan of the well-written word, and so along with 3
partners, she started 4WillsPublishing Co. in November, 2013 to assist
other writers in putting out their best work ever. By December,
2013, she had founded the RAVE
REVIEWS BOOK CLUB where in less than a year, the membership has rapidly
grown to well over 500. If you’re not a member yet, this is your
personal invitation to JOIN
US!
As you can see, she is an Author on the move and if you’re
interested in keeping up with her, here is her contact info (and a good pair of
running shoes would help as well):
