What is Authorpreneurship?
It’s a blend of the words “author” and “entrepreneurship” – a fusion of the creative and commercial. In authorpreneurship, authors build a business with their books or use books as a launching pad to increase their income and impact. For example, by creating courses, transformational programs, memberships, academies, coaching, consulting, etc.
