... That was her "Book Boot Camp" 5 years ago and I have attended all but one "Boot Camp" ever since. During that time I have written and published "Mind Matters, Change Your Mind, Change Your Life!", I have published a revision of that book, as well as a study guide to go with it and I am close to finishing my second book, "The Last Piece Of The Puzzle" AND... have become the President of the Board for Masquerade Ministries. (The door my book opened up!) ... I didn't think it was possible, but she did it! Kathleen Mailer promised that she would show us how to write, market and publish our own books in one day and she delivered on that promise! I was provided with the right tools and so motivated that I went home and started writing the very next day!

Kathleen is an amazing guide and mentor who has walked me through all the steps from writing to publishing and marketing, with ease. I have been drawn back to "Boot Camp" year after year because she has captured my interest and I want to keep learning and writing. I love how she changes the "Boot Camp" up every year and always offers something new along with her original teachings. My confidence levels have soared as I have stepped out of my comfort zone to meet the challenges she has put before me on a regular basis! A book is never a book! I am truly thankful that I have met Kathleen. Not only have we become fast friends but she is a tremendous encouragement and an uplifting influence in my life! A Book is Never a Book … Wow! If your looking for encouragement, ideas, or a better understanding of what it takes to publish a book this is the place to find it. Three days packed with information, fellowship, the beginning of friendships, and connections with other authors will change your understanding of the process and challenge your ideas of what publishing your book can mean.

I found this workshop to be a valuable experience and appreciated the insights that Kathleen Mailer provided as I began this journey of writing and publishing a book. Thanks Kathleen! Being at 'A BOOK IS NEVER A BOOK Boot Camp' was a life altering experience for me. For a long time I greatly desired to publish a book, but did not know how to. I had even started writing a few manuscripts but never pursued them to completion. The Boot Camp was the answer to all my questions. The Boot Camp was not only a time of instruction, but also a time of inspiration. Kathleen Mailer took us through the complete process of publishing a book-from conception, to writing and then marketing the book after publishing it. Kathleen impressed on us the fact that "A book is never a book". It could be whatever we wanted it to be and even what we could not fathom it to be; from a testimony, a platform, a life’s message, a key to open doors, a tool of healing to millions etc. Kathleen impressed on us the fact that "A book is never a book".

I would strongly recommend the boot camp to anyone who wants to publish a book. GODLOVE NGUFOR AUTHOR: EMPOWERING POTENTIAL: Re-birthing the African Entrepreneurial Spirit.
"A Book is Never a Book" Boot Camp is more than just learning to publish and write your own book; it is a treasured experience. I have been to several of Kathleen Mailer's boot camps and have learned new things I could use right away to write, market and publish my book. UPDATE: We are so proud of Teresa! Her book became a number one best seller! It also was picked up by the VERY famous Ernst & Young for their event. This book is a MUST have in your success library!
______________________________________________________________________________ When Kathleen Mailer walks into a room she fills it with hope, enthusiasm and an attitude that nothing is impossible. I know because I have witnessed it firsthand. As a television host I interviewed her about her book publishing techniques. I was so intrigued I attended her workshop and it turned out to be a transformational day of discovery and enlightenment. Kathleen Mailer is an engaging powerhouse of information who delivers and inspires the rest of us to get going. UPDATE: Paul's book is on the Athabaska University Syllabus for their nursing program. He has spoken in front of hundreds of people over the years. This book is a LASTING LEGACY and his 3rd Edition is an absolute reference guide for any person who struggles with addiction or mental illness. ______________________________________________________________________________ I attended Kathleen’s first boot camp over 10 years ago and walked away with my first book. I was doing my first book signing within 6 weeks, which was pretty amazing, and I never thought I could write a book… ever! That book continues to sell to this day, even with no traditional marketing or retailing used at all. Since her last book writing boot camp I have updated my book to its third edition. This update has been very powerful and has prepared me to definitely step into my purpose now. It provided the healing necessary to step into what God has called me to do in its entirety. She also provided me a new set of tools so that I can acquire the funds to take this book where it needs to go now, which is international. Colleen Hierath Founder of Refresh your Story
UPDATE from our office: Since Colleen wrote her book, her business has boomed! She is an incredible coach and is making a massive impact in the world around her. She also won the Today's Businesswoman of the Year Award for outstanding achievement. This incredible story is powerful, moving and motivational. ______________________________________________________________________________ If you have a book inside of you that you have wanted to write, take this course. It will be the best money you spend this year and the best use of your time. Take the mystery out of how to do it. Spend your creative energy writing the book and let Kathleen show you how to bring your book to market. All the obstacles that have held you back from writing your book will be removed. Kathleen Mailer will put you into action and you will never look back! After reading an article by Kathleen Mailer in Today's Businesswoman magazine, I was convicted to listen to what God had been telling me and start writing myself. It amazed me how God used what I wrote!
In early December 2011, I went to Kathleen's “Write, Publish & Market Your HOT How-To Book NOW!” workshop. At the workshop, I was able to determine a book topic and also outline its content. Kathleen's energy, ideas and encouragement made the day such a worthwhile experience for me. I am now well on my way to completing my first book, Am I Crazy, or Am I Abused? I am very grateful for Kathleen's support during this process.
Well, that led me to attending her How To Write, Publish & Market Your Own Book workshop in September of 2011. I was blown away! This was money well spent. I came away from this workshop with my books separated out and the title of my first book of what I just know are the start of many to follow, the chapters outlined and a passion and desire to get going. I am excited to say that my first book Where is My Bundle of Joy? Surviving Parental Abuse will be launched before the end of 2012.
Kathleen's workshop allowed us to create a safe place to learn together, struggle, create, share tears and laughter, but most of all, let the artist out! If this is a secret desire of your own, I highly recommend taking this workshop; you will not be disappointed! I have also been blessed to be able to take in her one-day workshop called, “Prepare to Prosper.” This was a day of blessings indeed.

When I met Kathleen I was ready to launch and share the success habits that I learned in my life. Her philosophies tied so closely into what I wanted to do! She quickly revealed to me how I too, could live the life that my wife and I dream of…. NOW? Because of a few tweaks in our lives, we ARE!…
What do I have in my life that I can say this? I have a wonderful, loving and supportive wife. We have been married 8 years. I have possibly, the BEST 3 boys in the whole wide world. I am doing what I love… being a coach, mentor, professional speaker and helping others become ‘change agents’. I am now dreaming BIGGER DREAMS… thanks to Kathleen… and I can’t wait to share with you what helped me get to this stage. ![]() Dear Kathleen, There is only one way to describe you and that is passionate. I have never met someone who is more passionate to help others than you are. When you told me about your writing workshop, for some reason I just knew I had to be there. I knew there was a little gold nugget hidden in there that I just had to dig out and get. But I didn't find just one gold nugget—I found many! In order for me to attend your workshop, I had to ask for time off work, which was only one day’s notice and I had to make arrangements for my kids to be looked after. I then had to find a place to stay, drive 3 hours to get there, and find the money to pay for it. It just didn't matter; somehow I was going to find a way to make it happen. I have taken writing workshops before, but nothing like this one. This workshop was the full meal deal. I learned everything I needed, from creating my new title (which I absolutely love: Self- Esteem Doesn't Come in a Bottle), my chapters, and outline. Not only did I get all that, but you taught me how to get your idea of “Magic Multiplier Clients” on board, and within 2 days, I had my first $20,000 client! In fact, when I first approached him for $5,000, he said I was asking too little so he bumped it up. Yay! You were right! One of my intentions was to quit my job and this one perfect client has helped me move toward that goal. I never thought I'd be able to find one that quickly. I'm very excited because with one more client, I'll be able to quit and spend all my time working in my passion, which is speaking and sharing my message about self-esteem and inner beauty. I know I can do it with your proven system.
If I hadn’t attended your workshop, I wouldn't have defined my book, I wouldn't have developed a title and chapters, I wouldn't have learned a new way to generate income before the book was even written, I wouldn't have learned how to do so many things. Your way of writing chapters is tremendous! I never thought writing a book could be this easy. After the workshop, I drove home and started writing. I wrote 20 pages in three hours and wow, I felt like I was on fire. Now that I've learned all this remarkable stuff, not only will I be able to finish my book, but I will also develop a companion workbook and self-esteem workshops (for teenagers, women and the corporate market). I can see how my whole world has been opened up to some tremendous possibilities that I just didn't know how to unleash before this workshop. Thank you, Kathleen, from the bottom of my heart! I am so glad that you have the passion you do because I know now that my book will be a best-seller. I'm excited to see it get there and generate more speaking events so I can share my message with more people around the world. Next stop after this is a world-speaking tour on Self-Esteem Doesn't Come in a Bottle. I can't wait!
