11/15/13: The Writing Edge Picks of the Week

Nov 15, 2013 | Better Writing

You’re a businessperson. You may not think of yourself as a writer, but you know that writing well can boost your results and your career. Naturally, you want to do better. Every week I point you to pieces that I think will teach you something or spark an idea or two. This week I’m pointing you to pieces on Max Lucado’s writing process and a company that’s got a way to give ebooks as holiday gifts.

From Michael Hyatt: A Peek Inside Max Lucado’s Writing Process
“As you probably know, Max is the author of almost 100 books with more than 80 million copies in print. There are probably less than five authors in the world who are that prolific—or that successful. It’s mind-boggling.”

From Digital Book World: Ebooks as Gifts: Oyster Offers Gift Subscriptions for Holidays
“We wanted to provide some new product news from Oyster – just in time for the holidays. Putting a new spin on gifting books this season (an always popular gift category), Oyster is introducing the gift of reading that keeps on giving.”
