How To Write A Book One Page At A Time
How To Write A Book One Page At A Time
Author:
Why You Need This Book — You need this book because you probably don’t have one (a book of your own that you have written I mean). And you need one. Really. That is, if you believe in what you have to say and care about your audiences. If not, then that’s another book. A very short one, it would be entitled Get Out Now, You... more »
But I’ll bet that isn’t the case so let’s move on. By this time you have decided that you have something to say in life. Something that people are willing to pay for. You probably get paid for saying it. You should get paid for saying it. Worthwhile thoughts and ideas are worth something. And that being the case, you should make those worthwhile thoughts available in as many forms as possible. That means if you have a speech, you have an audio cassette. If you have a speech, you have a video. And if you have a speech, you have a book. Now most people that buy this book will have a speech. And many will even have an audio cassette. A few more will have a video. But very few will have a book. But you should have. And this book will show you how to get one.
To have something good to say and not offer it in every imaginable format is a disservice to those who need it and want it. So it’s time for you to have book. And that is why you need this book. This book teaches you how to write a book. One page at a time. And that’s why you need this book.
You Will Love This Book
No kidding. Because in it you will discover that writing a book is not all that hard. Regardless of what you have been lead to believe.
It’s mainly about putting your rear end in a chair and typing. It is about transcribing your thoughts and ideas into a readable format. It is about loving what you have to say and knowing that you should share it with others because they deserve to hear it.
And it is about adding credibility to what you do. Authors are held in higher esteem in our society. Take advantage of that.
And it’s about money. Books bring in a bunch of money. Back of the room sales and mail order and retail distribution can make life much easier for you.
It is not about perfection. There are very few perfect books. So don’t worry about writing the perfect book. You won’t. That’s okay. Most people won’t read it any way. Really. I don’t mean to be ugly here but very few people actually read books. Lots of people buy books. But very few read them.
It is not about being able to spell. That is why they make spellcheck. And even then you won’t get them all. Big deal. I have never read a book published by anyone that didn’t have a typo or two in it.
It is not about punctuation. Hire someone to do that for you.
It is not about knowing everything there is to know about yoursubject. If you had to know everything there is to know about something before you wrote a book, no books would ever be written.
Again, it’s about believing in what you do and those you do it for. Period.
