Bruce's program focuses on what publishers really want from authors, how much
money authors can expect to make, and how to avoid publishing scams that take
an author's money only to leave them with a box of books and no book
distributor. It doesn't matter if it's a children 's book, novel, science
fiction, business, or self-help book -- the key is knowing exactly what a
publisher is looking for, being able to meet deadlines and fully recognizing
the discipline and focus required to actually complete a book from start to
