Steps To Writing a Book
December 31st, 2009 by the writerThere are some essential first steps to writing a book.
1) Determine Your Subject – before you begin writing a book, choose one or more subjects that interest you enough to warrant you spending 2, 3, or 4 months immersed in it. If you have no interest in your subject matter, not only will the odds of your success be diminished, but you’ll also be bored writing it.
2) Do your market analysis – ok, you have your subject, but is there a market for it? Unless writing is simply a hobby for you, the overriding purpose of you writing a book is to sell it. Is there a market for your proposed book? How do you know? Without a viable market, the odds of your book even being approved by a publisher are slim.
