How Colleen Hoover’s Casual Writing Turned her to a Professional Novelist.
Collen Hoover’s Biography is not complete without mentioning the dramatic story of how she began writing as a career.
When Hoover wrote her first novel, she did not think much of it.
If only she knew of the impending success, she would not have drawn the characters of her book from her kids in real life.
So, with the encouragement of friends and relatives, she wrote and casually self-published the book on Amazon using their kindle book templates.
Within a space of four months, her book “Slammed” was on New York Times, without any professional marketing help!
After the commercial success of her novel “Slammed”, Colleen Hoover quit her job to become a full timer novelist.
Hoover went on to write several bestselling romantic novels after her debut fiction novel.
“It ends with us”, the first of a two-part sequel, was her most difficult book to write and it paid her greatly after selling more copies than the bible.
A recent publication “It starts with us” is a follow up of this romantic work of fiction.
