For years now I’ve counted Michael Hyatt as a friend. Whenever I’m going through a career transition or considering a new book, Mike takes time to meet with me. I count that as a blessing because there are plenty of folks who’d like to meet with Mike. He was the CEO of Thomas Nelson Publishers for years, is a best-selling author himself and has helped hundreds of people launch their writing careers.

I was glad to see the subject of his new book because now I don’t have to call him every time I get the inkling. Instead, I can pick up platform.

I don’t endorse many books on this blog but because I get so many questions about writing and speaking I wanted to let you know Mike’s book releases this week. For writing, I recommend William Zinsser’s  On Writing Well and for the creative Process, Steven Pressfield’s The War of Art. And for all the rest, that is for marketing and self promotion, bringing a product to market and building a following, I recommend Michael Hyatt’s Platform.

Mike is doing some special promotion this week and you can get a lot of free resources here. The best to you as you build your platform, too.
