Change the World One Book at a Time:
Make a Positive and Meaningful Difference with Your Words
A book offers a powerful mechanism for changing lives and igniting movements. Knowing this, many passionate individuals dream of becoming “Authors of Change.” Sadly, too few of these change agents possess the knowledge to write a book that ultimately makes a difference.
Change the World One Book at a Time: How to Make a Positive and Meaningful Difference with Your Words, 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.
A variety of books have been published about how to become an author. To date, however, none have focused on providing strategies specifically geared toward writers who want to inspire and motivate change. These writers need a better-than-average manual about how to write and publish.
To fill this hole on the writing reference shelf, Change the World One Book at a Time will address the unique needs of those who want to write transformational books. From purpose statements to change strategies, roles to role models, community building to book development, writing guides to writing-for-change techniques, productivity to publishing, this book will cover the essential elements of writing books that successfully motivate change.
The author will couple her knowledge of writing and publishing and long-standing involvement with the San Francisco Writing for Change Conference with her experience as a Certified High Performance Coach® and transformational coach. As a result, she will provide a unique and thorough perspective on writing for change.
Readers of Change the World One Book at a Time will discover how to:
- Motivate change
- Succeed as an Author of Change
- Attract a community of evangelists and promotional partners
- Structure a book
- Use craft techniques to write a book that moves readers toward transformation
- Promote a cause
- Get out of their way and write from page 1 to “The End”
- Stay true to their purpose
- Use a book to make a difference

Advance Praise for 'Change the World One Book at a Time'
"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
