Writing my Ham Radio DX Book: From Idea to Reality

The story of how I wrote and published my ham radio DX book from beginning to end. Includes the digital (Kindle) and hardcover editions as well as hot to promote, get reviews, etc. I will share my challenges and how I overcame them to them in the hands of thousands.
This video will show you everything you need to know to write and publish your own ham radio book or ANY book really, regardless of topic and get it published. The general idea is the same. There are many things folks don't even think of until the time comes to publish. Don't get blindsided! This is the complete story of how an idea for a ham radio DX book, which almost never happened, went from an idea to reality.
If you're interested in writing or publishing a book, or just curious about my journey, this video is for you!
