Dedication

This book (and this entire collection!) has been a long time in the making. And I simply could not have made it through this process and (finally!) achieved this dream with my Academy and these books without some truly dear and incredible people encouraging me along the way.

Cecilla, Michelle, Amanda, Lloyd, Ann – for your endless encouragement, and yes, even a few kicks in the backside to get it done. My life is better for the simple fact I can call you friends.

Barbara – my friend and confidante – your encouragement lifts me up, and hey, maybe one day we will help solve the world’s woes!

As always, to my incredible son, who puts up with all the hours of me talking to myself as I work – I hope, if nothing else, I’ve shown you that it’s 100% okay to follow your dreams and build a life that serves others and feeds your own soul, too.

To Evan at StoryOrigin – thank you for creating such an incredible tool for us indie authors, and all the work you put into continuously improving and growing it!

To everyone in the Author’s Mojo Academy – mwah! Peace, love, and hugs, always.

"This book took me through the steps with the level of detail and care that I need to keep from tripping all over myself. Even the part that I already knew how to do—write the words—could have gone completely sideways without the straightforward info on what makes a reader magnet work. Whether you need a few key tips or a hand to hold down the entire path, you can find it in Reader Magnets for List Building."

Barbara Snow, Mystical Author

I’ve wanted to create a reader magnet since I first heard the term, but because I don’t have a series, I convinced myself it wasn’t viable for me now. But when a friend mentioned what this book had taught her, I checked it out, and a magnet idea that I absolutely love started to unfold. Thank you Stacy Sowers. You’re my hero.
