Do you want to write an Ebook? Or maybe a print book? I’ve done several interviews and radio shows and everyone has asked me the same question. What the toughest part of writing your book? My roll my eyeballs response was, “My ignorance!”
How I wish I had had Judy Cullins’ book, Write Your Ebook or Other Short Book – Fast! before I had started to write my book, Photo Adventures in Cuba ~ Unlock Your Power of Positivity. I would have shaved off 6 months of blood, sweat and tears. Her email support alone was worth its weight in gold!
Don’t need to struggle the way I did! My advice? Know before you go!”

As an author, you want to put out the best product you can. Often, writing and pre-marketing mistakes cost you sales.
(know that all writing should market you)
Your audience wants an easy read, so your formatting and organization must guide your reader to your gems. Remember, your chapters brand you and each one should support your book’s thesis and title.

As you write your book on a topic you love and know something about, you’ll also need to think about entertaining your audience, and making your book or other writing easy to read.
The biggest mistake emerging authors make is that they “tell” rather than “engage” their readers. If your writing lacks organization and doesn’t deliver compelling, vital sentences that convince your readers to keep reading, they will stop reading and turn to another offer. Specific examples include telling all your know without regard to what your readers want. They want dialogue and answers to their concerns, problems or challenges. Without these, there goes your “word-of-mouth” promotion.

Many authors start writing their second and third book when the ink is barely dry on their first one. As a veteran bookcoach, understand that this is not in your best interest.
Why? Because you need to learn the best, proven online book promotion techniques, and apply them to one book at a time. Just because your first book isn’t selling well doesn’t mean you should write another one–because if it doesn’t get promotion attention, will not sell well either. You need to market your first book before you write another one.
Think of the time spent writing and editing. These activities make you no money. You will only make money when you market/promote your book. To me that means that just because I spend a lot of months getting a book done and feel worn out and whipped, I shouldn’t stop there. I need to promote it to get known before I write another book. I need to know my first book’s audience and write for them when I know they want my information.

Do you want your chapters to engage your readers, so they’ll finish and recommend your book?
Here, you can see how one client revived her yoga book chapters with specific examples and short tips, so they would be more entertaining, polished, and easy-to-read. When your chapters engage and don’t bore, your readers will gladly spread the good word of mouth about your book.
“From just two sessions, I got so many ways to hook my audience for my yoga book to make each chapter more entertaining, polished, engaging, and easier to read. I loved your idea on using the tips as a separate blog post to promote the book. Thanks so much!”–Ntathu from UK.
When you use these hook elements like my client did to further brand her book in each chapter, you will write more authentically and naturally.
