40 Entrepreneurs Who Are Writing Books This Year, and When You Can Read Them

When I started putting this list together, I Googled "entrepreneurs writing books in 2021" and found... nothing. So, I took to my network and began Instagram messaging, LinkedIn posting, Facebook posting and stalking... and voila! The 40 humans who came to the surface to share their work within five days.

What did I learn? Don't keep your marketing a secret, friends. Blast your message to the world. Use SEO — make sure your business appears on Google searches. Don't make your customers hunt you. Don't make writers hunt you, either! (Cough, Cough.)

I also learned many people my team and I reached out to were very slow to respond. As I like to say, "The universe waits for no slow human." I advise you to be ready for wonderful opportunities every single day. Have a press kit ready, hire a virtual assistant to operate your inboxes and be prepared for miracles.

Now, onto the show. In no particular order, here are 40 entrepreneurs, what they're writing, what they're writing about and when you can get it.
