		<description><![CDATA[Started out writing a quick Q&#038;A piece designed to answer the question: what is micropublishing and why should I care about it?

Don’t wait for that sinking feeling to set in.

Here’s the first thing you must do.

		<description><![CDATA[As a business professional, a published book can be one of the most powerful tools in your personal marketing arsenal. Not only does it deliver value to your readers by sharing what you know on a subject, you directly benefit, too. 

It can elevate your profile as an authority on the topic you write about. It can reveal your passion. And if your book is really well-written, it also gives people a sense of what you're like as a person, both on a personal and professional level. 

But there are choices to make.

Lulu&#8217;s timing could not be better for this. [...]
