Here in Daily Writer world, we frequently talk about ways to build a business as a writer. The sooner you can get comfortable thinking of yourself as an author AND a business owner, the better.
One of the best business decisions you can ever make is building multiple streams of income with your book. My guest today is here to teach us how to create one of the best income streams: creating courses.
