Are you ready to take the plunge into publishing your book? Not so fast. The difference between a poorly written book and a publication that can capture hearts, change lives, entertain, or inform lies in the words. Your job, as author, is to get the words in the right order. Every. Word. Matters. First-time authors, and even veteran writers, go down rabbit holes with their writing, and sometimes it’s the editor who helps dig them out of those traps. Nothing like an amateur blunder to label your manuscript substandard. Amateurish. Real writing takes place after you have the bones down ...

Nothing ever fits Grayson, so when he finds a tailor that promises to work magic on his new suit, he just has to give him a try. Grayson has spent his whole life trying to hide behind everyone else. And as short as he is, it's been easy. But with an awards ceremony coming up, he wants an outfit that will turn heads. Maybe even the head of a woman who will finally see past his height.

Someday you might get more money at work, earn more vacation time, or win lottery. But none of us will figure out how to squeeze 25 hours into a ...

Innovation is the main event of the modern age, the reason we experience both dramatic improvements in our living standards and unsettling changes in our society. It is innovation that will shape the 21st century. Yet innovation remains a mysterious process, poorly understood by policy makers and businessmen alike. Matt Ridley argues that we need to see innovation as an incremental, bottom-up, fortuitous process that happens as a direct result of the human habit of exchange, rather than an orderly, top-down process developing according to a plan.

My thesis is simple: “If The Church Is True, Then Why Doesn't Sunday School End On Time?” Let me unpack that quote. First, this is not an anti-Mormon book, but “inside baseball” for faithful members.

I dream of him night after night. He's dressed in a tuxedo that I'm sure cost more than my first car, while I'm wearing a sparkling black gown. But there are two problems with these dreams.
