Memorable Quotes:
"The first day that the book comes out, I always tell people that's when the baby was born and now you have to raise it because now it takes about three years for a nonfiction book to really get the kind of momentum people want. So you just have to love your book and put on that author hat and stay with the book and take advantage of every opportunity and not just be on to the next." [00:15:11] – Celeste Fine
"If you don't have a phase two strategy before you publish, then you're probably not going to succeed. So a lot of people spend so much time on their pre-order and on pub strategy, and they don't even begin to think about phase two. And what phase two is, once the book isn't the lead, how do you then soft sell the book on something that still leads?" [00:42:22] – Celeste Fine
