How My Book Landed On The New York Times Best Seller List!

I’ve been trying to figure out how to land my book on the New York Times Best Seller List and wanted to write about it without sounding ridiculous.  What I want to say is this: I finally did it you guys, I wrote a Best Seller!  

It took a lot of hard work and a lot of late nights but I now have a created a fool proof system that can make this happen over and over again.

1. The first thing you have to do if you want a book on the bestseller list is think, does anybody care about this topic?

2. If you have a great idea, outline your idea out loud.  Take it and transcribe it.

3. Send it to a great editor but don't forget the sequins, glitter, gold leaf, embossed letters or tiny LED lights in the cover. People like shiny things.

4. Take a photo of your glittery book cover and print fliers and hand them out to random strangers. What random stranger doesn’t like being handed a piece of paper? You could try handing out hugs, too.

5. Offer a sedative/audiobook combo. If it’s playing while they’re asleep, they’re still reading, it was in a very accredited study a long time ago.

As I have followed all of these steps, I suddenly realized that it felt like I was floating on clouds. And then I woke up and realized this WAS just a dream! However, it would seem, that this dream has now sparked a fire in me and has motivated me to actually attempt another book.

Actually....maybe not yet.

Happy April Fool's Day!
