5 Do’s and Don’ts To Help You Write A Book Now!
Many aspiring authors think that writing a book is hard and takes too long, so they procrastinate on getting started. But it doesn’t have to be.
I’ve been teaching coaches, content creators, creative entrepreneurs, speakers and consultants how to write a book the fast and easy way since 2004.
In this article, I’m going to share five of my best strategies to simplify the process for you.
1. Decide the best way to write your book. If you are not comfortable writing, talk your book, if you are, then write it. Do what works for YOU and stop worrying about how other people do it or what is “the best way”. There is no best way, only what works for you!
2. Many book coaches suggest doing a brain dump first. I do NOT let my clients do a brain dump before writing their books. Doing a brain dump gives you disjointed bits and pieces that will do nothing but overwhelm you.
3. Create your outline. This is a crucial step that many authors skip because they think they don’t need it. They’re wrong. Your outline is your roadmap to easy success. When you write down each chapter heading and each major point you want to make in each chapter, you can see clearly what needs to go into your book and what should be left out.
