Here's what people are saying about
Nina Amir's ability to speak before an audience:
"One of the best parts of Nina Amir's speaking style is that she makes the
audience feel that what she does is something that they can do. As she shares her way towards
finding a common ground with her listeners, her clarity and easy pace depicts her as a
considerate and confident person; the kind of person that you want to listen to. In sharing the
ups and downs of her own process, she makes the journey to success seem less bumpy. By mixing
story telling with process, she helps the audience share her point of view, and capture a
vision of what they can accomplish with her advice." -- Dr. Ralph DeAmicis, Professional Speaker and Author of Feng
Shui and the Tango in the Age of the Smart Phone
"I liked the five bullet points in 5 Things Every Nonfiction Writer
Needs to Publish a Book, which made it simple. Good content. I
knew a lot of this due to having worked on a proposal for a while, but it was helpful for
others. Things I didn’t know: Knowing what’s most and least important to agents/publishers. I
thought it was interesting that one needed a proposal even for independent publishing (and I
let someone else know this). The need for “chutzpah” was the most surprising thing. Also,
Nina also seems to have a fun personality when speaking. I came up to discuss coaching
because she seems to know the industry and to have had some success with getting people
agents/published." -- Georgia Platt
"I attended your presentation on March 9, 2010, at the monthly meeting of the
South Bay Writers chapter of the California Writer's Club. Your talk was titled "5 Things Every
Author Need To Publish a Nonfiction Book." It focused on tips for nonfiction authors like me. I
enjoyed hearing your principles and will be putting them to use. You stressed having an idea that
solves a problem, developing a solid pitch to market it, establishing a platform of techniques to
promote it, writing a winning proposal to the the book published, and to be bold in pursuit of your
passion...Thank you for a great presentation." -- Rick Deutsch, Professional Speaker and
Author, President of Carpe Diem Experience
