How To Write And Publish A Book In The Next 90 Days
If You Can Complete This, You Can Call Yourself an Author
Once you write your first book, you can write as many as you want.
But the first one is the hardest. First, you have to start the process. Then, you have to work through the lulls of writing. Finally, you have to do the work to make it a bestseller. But once you do it, it changes everything.
Today, I am going to share with you my process for writing and publishing bestsellers. Are you ready?
Phase One: Prepare
There is an initial stage to writing and publishing books. It's the one where you need to make sure you have your ducks in a row. Otherwise, the next phase will be really hard, and selling a bestseller will be even harder.
Think of phase one as the foundation of the house. If the foundation has cracks, that house will sink or crumble to the ground. But, if that foundation is strong, you will set yourself up for bestseller success.
Here are the steps to phase one:
Know Your Target Audience: Without knowing your audience, you won’t be able to sell books.
Affirm and Validate Your Idea with Research: If your idea isn’t going to hit a market well, you won’t be able to become a bestseller.
Mindmap Your Idea: Expand on your idea and see what will go into your book. This will set you up for success.
Create Your Outline: Take your mind map, turn it into an outline, and prepare to write your bestseller.
Once you get to this point, you move on to starting the business of writing your first draft. This is the best part and the hardest part all at once.
Phase Two: Produce
This is probably the most straightforward phase of the process. You sit down and write your first draft, starting with your introduction, chapter after chapter, and conclusion.
It is that simple, but there are a few things you need to remember:
Don’t burn yourself out.
Write without editing.
Celebrate each step.
Have a plan and stick to it.
Have someone keep you accountable who cares.
If you can nail these five things while writing your book, you will be well on your way to writing your first draft. But you need to meet every single one of these.
Phase Three: Publish
This is where you have to do all the hard work. And in this phase, you take all your hard work and turn it into something amazing. Here’s what it takes:
Editing
Cover design
Formatting
Metadata research
Publishing
Promoting
You can do the first three yourself, or you can hire out. If you do it yourself, you are in for a lot of work because you can’t just half-ass this part (pardon the language). The last three take good information and moxy to get yourself to a bestseller.
The Secret Ingredient
If you have been trying to write a book forever and still haven’t done it, I have a secret ingredient for you, and it is coming on Monday.
I am opening four spots to help authors write and publish their books in the next 90 days—and not only publish but become bestsellers.
The doors open on Monday, and if you want to write your book in time for the end of the year, you better grab this opportunity. The doors are only open for a week, and there are only five spots.
The doors close once the spots are full, and you miss out on this opportunity to write and publish a bestseller. And you miss all the opportunities the book will afford you.
Sign up so you don’t miss out on the opportunity!
My name is J.R. Heimbigner, and I am a #1 Bestselling Author on Amazon with 15 self-published books. I want to help you write and publish your book in 90 days.
This is all valid and sound advice. I plan on participating in NaNoWriMo and hopefully finishing my book in 30 days. It won't be ready for publishing, but the majority of it will be written. I've done it 3 times before, though I've never written with the idea to publish only for the fun of doing it. Which has it's own rewards. NaNoWriMo is national novel writing month. If i ever consider taking it a step further, your course would be a good idea.
What can be equally hard is niche research! But as you say, you need to go all the way with it to validate your book idea. I made so many mistakes but they were worth it in the end because they helped me find a niche research process that works, which honestly I was so relieved about.
