Book Coach
Teaches Aspiring Authors How to Make Book Writing Dream Come
True This Year
Dallas,
TX, May 6, 2008—Aspiring authors everywhere
are excited about new possibilities created by the digital
publishing revolution. The steep mountain of pricey subsidy
and vanity publishing alike proved impossible for many to
get past. According to Win
with the Writer Inside You course instructor Earma Brown
that obstacle has been reduced to a tiny molehill as publish
on demand and digital publishers’ crop up monthly offering
low to no setup costs.
“81%
of people feel that they have a book in them…and should
write it,” reports the New York Times in a recent survey.
If you did the math, that represents over 200 million people
in the U.S. alone who want to write a book in their lifetime!
“Most
aspiring authors have the desire and even the message but
many lack the focus and know how required to pull it all together
in a book. If procrastination and poor planning don’t
keep them from putting pen to paper, lack of confidence in
their message hinders many from completing their book,”
says Brown, who is herself author of 9 books and who has been
in the publishing field for more than a decade as an author,
web developer, and independent publisher.
“I’ve
had books stuck inside me and I’ve seen others struggle
with putting their message to paper. I want to help aspiring
authors write their message into a book, publish it and sell
boat loads of books,” she adds.
Did
you write a New Years resolution earlier this year? Yes. I
hope you didn't put your book on the list this year. New Year
resolutions are for stuff you're going to do, right? Do this
instead; dream a bigger dream with me.
Imagine your book already finished. Think about the benefits
you've gained. You know the added respect from your colleagues,
the added income to help pay the bills or fund your next vacation.
Picture your customers writing in about how much your book
has helped them. Hear them telling all their friends about
your well-written helpful book. Imagine how excited you feel
about finally fulfilling your dream of writing a book.
Did you dream the bigger dream? Great! It can happen; you've
already seen it. Now follow these seven principles and make
your book dream come true this year:
1.
Write a book with passion. Choose a topic you're
passionate about. Perhaps you're passionate about your work
or a cause. Your customers can be your biggest resource. Solve
their problems. Answer their questions. If you're a speaker,
use one of your main talks and expound on that subject.
2.
Write a book with intention. Write a plan. Get the
necessary resources in place to accomplish your dream of writing
a book. Educate yourself about book writing. Sign up for a
class, course or seminar. Set aside a special bank account
for book cover design, editing, page layout and promotion.
Without the money needed to fund your project, your book dream
may die or stall at the finish line.
3.
Write a book with a vision. Write your vision down
and make it plain. Write the dream you just dreamed. Be specific
with the details. Name the date you will complete it. Write
the specific outcomes you will have as a result of writing
your book. For example, see yourself watching your bank balance
grow from book sales. Write, "I see myself with increased
income and more clients." Anyway you get the idea; create
your vision statement including see, hear and feel.
4.
Write a book with focus. No, you don't have to sell
your soul anymore to write a saleable book. Use the cumulative
effect of doing a little bit at a time. Even so, unless you
want it to take years to write, you must schedule writing
time each week. For example, you could write 2 pages a day
and have a short book in weeks.
5.
Write a book of solutions. Your audience is looking
for solutions to their problems. They are looking to you for
encouragement to overcome their challenges. Mine your background,
your files, and your speeches for the gold called your knowledge.
Use speedy book writing techniques and finish your book faster
to sell sooner.
6.
Write a book with realistic expectations. If you
think an hour here or a couple there will get your book done,
rethink your commitment. Plan to fit at least 8-14 hours into
your schedule to get your book done and out to the world.
It may mean getting up in the wee hours of the morning before
your family gets up or burning the midnight oil after work.
Either way, know consistency will drive you and your book
to a successful completion.
7.
Write a book with persistence. Persistent writers
become successful authors. Don't give up. Take your dream
out of the back seat. Bring your book writing plans to the
front. When you do what it takes to author your book, you
can reap the rewards through an expert status, increased fees,
respect for your know how, fame that grows and many more opportunities
that manifest.
Don't
wait a minute longer. Take your book dream off the shelf.
If you wait, you can be this time next year without making
your dream of writing a successful book come true. You have
the knowledge and the solution. Now write it down. Your audience
is waiting. Focus, use the principles above and make your
book dream come true this year. Make it different. Make it
count. Make it yours.
