Open For Business


The idea is that you sit down, put your heart and thoughts on paper, putting pen to paper as it were. You pour out all of your emotions, dreams, and nightmares There are some that say if you want to be a writer, just sit down at your typewriter/computer and bleed. Which in fact, is true.   

What this statement doesn’t tell you is that once you write your manuscript, find a publisher to produce your book, play the waiting game until you have that amazing piece of great literature in your wanting hands. It doesn’t tell you that once this is all said and done. What comes next?

Well my friend, one this is all set in place, you’re now… Open For Business!

Did you want to open your own business or did you just think you would write a book and call it good? Sitting back and letting your publisher make you a millionaire. The reality is – most publishers will create your book and then plop it in your lap and say – “Well, there you go, good luck!”

Backtracking a bit – Breaking Rules Publishing doesn’t charge you a fee to publish your book. We help and work with you to create a marketing plan. We do our best to get your books in bookstores in your area and across the country. Your book is sold proudly on our website as well as Amazon and Kindle. And … wait for it. We offer you a 70% royalty package after you sell 200 books and 30% before.

What we don’t do is publish your book and toss it in your lap. It makes sense for us to help you all that we can so that we, in turn, can make money as well.

So… you’ve published a book – now the work really starts.

You’ll need to –

Create more work
Create a marketing plan
Create more work
Schedule book signings and readings
Create more work
Go to festivals
Create more work
Give your work away to nonprofits as an auction item for fundraisers
ANYTHING you can to get the word out and sell that book!
And of course - Create more work.


Your most important task of the day? To think of yourself and your book as a business.
