Praise:

“As a book production and publishing professional, as well as an author myself, I cannot sing enough praises for Author Stylist Guide. Being an author isn’t only about writing; it’s a business that requires marketing and presenting ourselves in various venues and on multiple outlets, and this unique book could not be a more valuable guide. With her extensive experience, and with a spirit of encouragement and support throughout, Jennifer gives indispensable advice and detailed checklists for everything from participating in events and trade shows, to being a featured speaker, to being a guest on podcasts, and more. This is truly the book all authors have needed and wished for! From beginning to end, she infuses confidence, provides relatable examples, and provokes thoughtful consideration of the range of opportunities authors may be offered or want to consider to reach their audiences. I’ll definitely be recommending this book to all my author clients—and relish having it when I publish future books of my own.”

Stacey Aaronson, founder of The Book Doctor Is In and multiple-award-winning author of the memoir Raising, and Losing, My Remarkable Teenage Mother

“Jennifer Milius’ Author Stylist Guide is a book that every author should buy whether they have published one book or many.

Before I read it, I naively thought I knew how to prepare for almost any event, but this guide gave me tips that I’d never thought of.

Ms. Milius is an expert at giving clear instructions on how to handle events and book signings among so many other subjects, she leaves no stone unturned.
I’m so excited that I now have this bible to refer to the next time I have an event. It’s a welcome guide for all authors.”

Leslie A. Rasmussen, award-winning author of The Stories We Cannot Tell

Praise:

“'Being a boss doesn’t make someone a leader.' This is a quote from Wayne Applewhite and Jennifer Milius’ book on leadership, You Know it’s a Verb, Right? That quote rings so true.

People are promoted into supervisory positions, but they don’t always possess or care to possess leadership qualities. We’ve all had bosses like that, making work life miserable.

One of the things I like about this book is a series of questions throughout that allows individuals to reflect on their behaviors and attitudes and examines leadership through the eye of a moral compass.

The book is written for the novice and the long-term leader. But there’s something in it for everyone. I also want to highlight that the book is co-authored. As a co-author of a book myself, I know this is not an easy task. However, given the quality of this book, it’s obviously a successful partnership."

“I found the ‘Wayne remembers’ and ‘Jen remembers’ sections to be particularly useful, as they provide real-life examples that support and illustrate the authors’ arguments. The use of plain language makes this audiobook easy to understand and follow. The audio quality is clear, and the narration (done by the authors) is evenly paced, with an appropriate tone and rhythm, which makes it an enjoyable listen. Anyone who wants to improve their leadership skills will appreciate this book.”
