Episode Title: The Smart Publishing Impact Series – Episode 29: The Top 6 Habits of Successful Authors
Episode Summary:
Ever wonder what separates authors who finish a great book and make it thrive from those who fizzle out halfway? In this solo episode, Renée shares the six habits she’s seen time and again in the most successful authors she’s worked with. From locking in a marketable concept to weaving your book into who you are, these are the practices that lead to a finished manuscript, a strong launch, and lasting impact.
Whether you’re on your first book or your fifth, you’ll learn how to set yourself up for success—not just in writing, but in making your book work for you long after it’s published.
What You’ll Hear:
Why a crystal-clear, marketable concept is your foundation
How to create (and actually stick to) a rock-solid outline
The magic of writing or recording at least once a week
Why collaboration and feedback are your secret weapons
How to integrate your book into your brand and daily life
The mindset shift that turns challenges into “done”
Quote to Remember:
“A book won’t get written if you don’t actually write it—find a way to make it happen.”
