In A Book is Born, author, indie press owner, and book midwife, Nancy Cleary shows what it is like to birth a book as seen through the eyes of 24 of her authors–each with a story to tell about why she wanted to publish her “baby” and how it felt when she did, along with everything in between.

Cleary is an advocate for moms–her publishing company, Wyatt-MacKenzie, named for her two children, celebrates a decade of manifesting the ideas of mom writers and entrepreneurs. She created the Mom-Writers Publishing Cooperative to publish, brand, market, and support a group of mom authors through the perilous, yet fulfilling process of publishing their first book.
