Sinopse

"The information that is to be gathered ... respecting the mode of life of one of the great races of mankind, must be collected at once or the opportunity will be lost." In 1906, J. P. Morgan provided Edward Curtis with $75,000 to produce a series on Native Americans and he recorded tribal lore and history, and he described traditional foods, housing, garments, recreation, ceremonies, and funeral customs. Curtis's goal was to photograph and to document as much of Native American traditional life as possible before that way of life disappears.

    Why Is Nobody Buying My Book? 
    Are you an author pouring your heart into your craft, only to be met with silence? You’ve written, edited, and published, but where are the readers? If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Why isn’t my book selling?” you’re not alone—and this book holds the answers. 
    Why Is Nobody Buying My Book? It isn’t just a guide; it’s a roadmap for indie authors navigating the competitive and often overwhelming self-publishing world. Whether you’re struggling with pricing, marketing, or connecting emotionally with readers, this book equips you with the tools and strategies to stand out and succeed. 
    This book isn’t just a collection of strategies—it’s also my story. When I wrote my first book, Diary of Cliches, I believed I had something meaningful to share. What I didn’t anticipate was the crushing reality of low sales and self-doubt. I spent sleepless nights questioning my pricing, rewriting my book description, and wondering if my voice was ever meant to be heard. 
    And then it hit me. Writing isn’t just about the story you tell—it’s about how that story connects with your audience. Through trial error, and countless lessons, I discovered what truly resonates with readers. These lessons not only changed the trajectory of my books but transformed how I viewed my journey as an author. 
    Why Does Nobody Buy My Book? Takes you behind the scenes of that journey while giving you actionable insights, practical tools, and creative strategies to navigate the challenges of self-publishing. From shifting your mindset about money to crafting emotionally resonant stories, this book will help you not only sell books but create a lasting impact.

    After taking a few weeks off work, Casey is presented with a new foster child: 14-year-old Elise, whose Mum left her at just five years old. 
    At first, she’s no trouble at all, that is until she falsely accuses another carer, Jan, of acting inappropriately towards her. It turns out this isn’t the first lie Elise has told – her previous carer was constantly following up allegations Elise had made of people bullying her, trying to have sex with her, or hurting her physically. With some reservations, Casey agrees to take Elise on long-term, but when she makes some dark claims about her mum, Casey doesn’t know whether to believe her. In any case, she is determined to find out the truth… 
    Casey Watson, the Sunday Times bestselling author, offers a deeply personal and moving account of her experiences in fostering. The narrative, a gripping blend of autobiography and biography, delves into the themes of survival, relationships, and the social aspects of adoption. 
    For fans of Linda Watson-Brown (Don't Say A Word), Katy Weitz (The Girl for the Job), Veronica Clark (Snatched), and Maggie Hartley (Battered, Broken, Healed).
