So Money episode 794, Ask Farnuge with special co-host Lydia Benham.

You're listening to So Money,, everyone. Welcome, October 12, 2018. I have a big weekend ahead, mainly because I'm going to be nervous about the Monday coming up.

Monday, the 15th and Tuesday the 16th,

I will be hosting my, at this point,

semi-annual, it's happening twice a year now and I can't believe it it's called

book to brand my workshop that helps people who are thought leaders and experts and

entrepreneurs learn the ins and outs of publishing a book, mostly traditional publishing, but we have been getting lately into the art and strategy of self-publishing.

But it's one of my passions that I've been profiting from, I guess,

you know, and something that I've actually learned from guests on this podcast, guests have come on and

have taught me how to make money from what I know and not just from what I do.

And having spent 15 years working as a content producer and book writer,

I've learned a few things about the process of book writing and I've been

called upon a lot of times by friends and colleagues to shed light on how to publish a book

and how to find a literary agent and how to

pitch a book to a publication and etc etc how to leverage a book you

right to become a speaker or a brand partner and so I find that I actually know more than I estimated and it has now blossomed into this amazing two-day workshop and we're excited to bring everybody together but you know the days ahead of that I'm always nervous

I'm always like did I forget something did I order enough food are the guests

gonna show up and it always works out but it's sort of like putting on putting a wedding

together there's a lot of moving parts not as high stakes the wedding but you know

what I mean and so anyway that's just what's happening on my front.

I love October.

It's kind of my one of my favorite months of the year.
