Debut memoir author Dr. Deb Miller's success story

When I first saw Dr. Deb Miller’s pitch land in my inbox in 2022, I was instantly hooked by her idea: telling her personal story of reinvention through parallels with the evolution of the portrayal of Disney princesses. We worked together to transform her debut memoir from a collection of stories originally meant only for the eyes of her children and grandchildren into an empowering narrative that has resonated with readers around the world. Six months after publication, Forget the Fairytale and Find Your Happiness had sold over 1,200 paperback copies alone — not counting ebooks and audiobooks — already exceeding what many memoirists sell over their book’s entire lifetime. Now a nine-time award winner, Deb hopped on a call with me talk about her publication journey, including: How she decided on a compelling framing device for her book that got the attention of publishers and booksellers. The story structure that dialed up the dramatic stakes of her manuscript without changing the story itself. How changing the title of her book at the last minute opened the door for exciting and unexpected opportunities. How she used her background in marketing to creatively promote Forget the Fairytale (real examples and clips included!). There’s so much gold in this conversation for pre-published memoirists who are curious about what it takes to get your book seen or are intimidated by the idea of marketing your book. Thank you again to Deb for trusting me with your story – it’s a joy to see Forget the Fairytale find its way into the hearts of readers.
