As editorial director for a major trade book publisher, I regularly receive questions like this:
- Is it okay to blog content that I want to use in my book?

I can’t speak for all publishers, but I can tell you my take on these questions and offer some advice to bloggers who want to work with a traditional publisher. The truth is you can use your blog posts to write a book that both publishers and readers will love.
This is the beginning of a guest post I wrote for my good friend Jonathan Milligan at Blogging Your Passion. To keep reading, click here.
