Summary

An author has died. You're responsible for managing their estate, and it's a mess. 

Are you overwhelmed? Frustrated? 

You might be feeling that this responsibility the author gave you is more of a burden than a gift.  

You know that managing the author's books will make money and provide for you and the author's heirs, but you probably have no idea where to start. 

The Author Heir Handbook is a concise guide for heirs written in PLAIN ENGLISH that will help you understand an author's publishing business, the different components that the deceased author used to create books and income, and how to manage those components. It will save you countless hours by helping you figure out where to spend your time and effort.

This book will help you:


  • Avoid making mistakes that could cripple the estate

  • Locate the author's manuscripts

  • Take an inventory of all the author's works (with an easy template to save time)

  • Determine which online accounts the author used (and how to access them)

  • Manage the money

  • Get hired help when you need it (and how to avoid scams)

  • Keep the author's books relevant for new generations

  • Create income for you and your family, the way the author intended

Managing an author estate is hard work, but this book will help simplify the process. You just might even be able to do more with the estate than the author ever could in their lifetime. Purchase your copy today, and don’t do things the hard way!
