GET YOUR BOOK DONE IN 30 MINUTES

Every year you put it off until you….

  • Have time

  • Have extra money

  • Research the topic more

  • Get more confidence in yourself

  • The United States wins the World Cup

  • And so on – the list can go on forever.

Whatever is holding you back is not helping you. It is literally holding you back from reaching your goals and fulfilling your dreams.

Would you let someone do that to you? Would you let a friend, parent, or spouse, hold you back?

Of course not.

You’re doing it to yourself.

You read that right.

We do to ourselves something we would never let someone else do to us. We hold ourselves back. So, break the cycle of holding yourself back. Get ready to write your book in 2023.

It is really not that hard and doesn’t take up much of your time. Let’s talk about how you can take you lunch break or 30 minutes of time instead of watching a TV show to set yourself to be a published author in 2023.

You have 30 days to do it, so let’s get started.

1.     Decide on the topic you are going to write about. If you are like most people who want to write a book, you have several ideas. Some may be fiction; some may be nonfiction. The best one to start with is the one you know the most about – in either genre.

2.     Decide this month what your writing schedule will look like starting the week of January 15, 2023. Don’t rush this. Get through all the awesome holidays of December and the beginning of January. Most of us use an electronic calendar that we can see on our computers, phones, pads, and watches. Use one of your 30--minute stints and set up a recurring day and time or days and time to write each week through 2023 until you finish your book. Have the dates automatically set for the whole year. If you finish before the end of the year, it’s easy to delete the remaining ones. Of course, you can keep them and just start writing your next book.

3.     Look at the publishing options. You definitely want to go with an eBook, but do you want a print option too? What about types of publishing: traditional, hybrid, vanity, or self-publish? All are valid and all can give you a best-seller.

4.     Once you have all this, if you really want to, you can start outlining and organizing the chapters of your book. Then organizing the content of each chapter.

These 4 things can be done in a 30-minute lunch or instead of watching a 30-minute television show over several days. It doesn’t take much time at all, and then on January 15 or whatever day you choose for that week, you start your new endeavor—becoming a published author.
