“Berrett-Koehler Author Terry Hawkins’ Details Self-Publishing Experiences with iUniverse (PRWEB) January 08, 2013 iUniverse Open Book Editions, a partnership between the leading indie-book publisher and Berrett-Koehler, released a video interview with inspirational author Terry Hawkins where she talks about her experiences initially as a self-published author and her transition to becoming a traditionally published author with Berrett-Koehler Publishing..

Terry Hawkins founded professional training company People in Progress Global in 1989. Educating businesses and individuals has been her passion for nearly 25 years, and along the way she has helped more than 300,000 professionals find their drive and realize their goals. Before Terry’s relocation to the USA, she was the most sought-after, award-winning female speaker in Australia. “Why Wait to Be Great?” is one of many books Hawkins has written or co-written, including her very popular “Stickman Rules” children’s series, “Secrets of Inspiring Women Exposed,” and “The Power of More Than One.”

“It’s been my life’s work to help people achieve their goals and experience success both personally and professionally,” said Hawkins. “With the help of Berrett-Koehler and iUniverse, the methods and teachings I’ve used in my own life to overcome great adversity and throughout my career are now available to everyone in ‘Why Wait to Be Great?’ and I hope it encourages others to deal with their pain and follow their dreams just as I have with my own.”

Open Book Editions welcomes authors who share in the Berrett-Koehler mission—“Creating a World That Works for All.” BK believes, to truly create a better world, action is needed at all levels—individual, organizational and societal. BK and iUniverse are both proud and pleased that all OBE books promote positive change.

“Why Wait to Be Great? It’s Either Now or Too Late!,” will be available this spring from Berrett-Koehler Publishers—look for it anywhere books are sold. For more information about self-publishing opportunities with iUniverse and Open Book Editions, please visit iuniverse.com or call 1-800-AUTHORS.”
