So you wanna write a nonfiction book? Great! But where do you begin? With some quick research you'll discover that 95% of people who start to write their book never finish it. Well that's a bit disheartening, isn't it? It must be really hard if so many people gave up before they even finished. The truth is, it's not actually all that difficult, but there is some work involved, and that's one of the reasons why so many people quit when the novelty of being a writer wore off. They had this pie-in-sky fantasy of sitting at their keyboard and letting their muse take over... that the words would just flow through them as their fingers danced across the keyboard. Hogwash! That's not the way it works.
Waiting for inspiration to strike means you might have one book finished by the time you're on your death bed... and your book will probably suck. Sorry, but it's true. If you don't spend time honing your craft by only writing when you feel like it, or you don't have your ideas organized properly so people can make sense of your book, if you actually finish it, it's not going to be very good. But... There is a secret to writing. Do you want to know what it is? The secret to writing is to write. That's it. That's the big secret. Write every day and every day your writing will get better. It doesn't matter if you are writing fiction, non-fiction, a screenplay, or a song, you have to organize your thoughts and ideas or else you'll end up with gibberish that nobody will want to read. I've written all those things - I'm a published songwriter, author, filmmaker, and I wrote a weekly newspaper column, so I have a wee bit of experience, which is why I wrote this guide... to share my experiences with you to save you time, money, and frustration so you're not just another wannabe writer who kinda-sorta tried but gave up. Let me help you be the exception to the rule so you actually finish your book. But why non-fiction? Because they are easier to write. AND they're easier to sell. Ignore those so-called gurus who tell you to find a profitable niche and write about it because chances are, you'll grow tired or bored (or both) and give up. With my guide, you'll learn how to find profitable niches you actually want to write about! You'll learn how to outline and organize your book so you're not writing blind. And you'll learn about formatting, book covers, and pricing your book.
But what if you don't want to sell your book? What if just knowing you are helping people is reward enough?
In this guide you'll learn why charging for your book will actually help more people than giving it away for free! If you always want to write a book but didn't know where to start, or perhaps you're worried that you're not an 'expert' or have enough authority in your niche to write a book about it, then this guide is for you. One of these days, is none of these days. That old proverb pretty much sums it up... if you keep waiting until one of these days to write that book you keep saying you're going to write, you'll never write it! I know it, you know it... so stop thinking about writing your book and let's get started! AND, at only 99 cents* for the ebook version of my guide, you have no excuse for not getting started right now! Order my guide today and start writing your book tomorrow! *** Ebook priced at 99 cents USD - Limited Time Offer ***
