What people are saying…

This book is a great start to making a dream come true. The author gives step by step instructions on how to achieve a book deal. But I also liked how she explains that it takes patience. We all have to understand we want instant gratification but things happen when God wants them to not on our schedule. I also appreciated the parts where she shared her mistakes and lessons that she learned. ~Penny

 
I loved this short but informative book with its step by step details of how to get a book published. It is encouraging and well written . The author was very transparent as she shared her mistakes and never gave up. Patience is a key to all things, and getting a book published is no exception. The author has also included a workbook that is very helpful in writing down your thoughts and keeping yourself organized . Thank you for reminding us that it is Gods timing not ours. We seem to want to rush things, but move out ahead of Him. Take a deep breath and allow God to guide you as you follow your dream of getting published. For those looking for a direction to take in their quest to get published, I highly recommend this book. ~Deana

Gina Duke has written a great guide to the process of getting a book published. Her experience in the publishing industry is transferred to the pages of this book in a format even the most inexperienced author can use and benefit from. I found her suggestions on platform building very enlightening and her advice of starting ‘now’ is very applicable. I believe non-fiction writers might benefit from this book more than those aspiring to write fiction, but it is applicable to both categories as well as in the various genres. Christian writers will find this book especially appealing. It has made me want to read her book titled Organizing Your Prayer Closet. Ms. Duke certainly has some very unique and usable ideas and I appreciate her generosity in sharing them with others. ~Cindy

If you are thinking about writing a book, or are even in the process of writing a book, you need this book. Gina Duke offers some tried and true tips that will help you along the road to published. I loved the format of sharing things she learned, sometimes from doing it the wrong way first! She’s willing to help you out so you don’t do those mistakes. I would highly recommend this book to help you get going on the correct path to published! ~Tammy

Recognition

"I have been using Gina's Organizing Your Prayer Closet book for several weeks now, and I LOVE it! It is truly a life-changing way to pray. As one reviewer already said, you could just make your own prayer journal, but you would miss out on Gina's wonderfully transparent and educational chapters. Using the workbook section of the book, I have already had my eyes widely opened to what God is doing in my life and how HE is speaking to me! These are things I have been missing by my old haphazard way of praying. In terms of how this book will change my prayer life, I would compare it to the way Henry Blackaby's study, Experiencing God impacted my relationship with the Lord."
