What you can&#8217;t do, delegate. It&#8217;s as simple as that.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>#1 Get the information out of your head in whatever format works best for you.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Even if you aren&#8217;t a writer, if you have something worth saying, say it! Here are some possible alternatives to writing:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Try recording yourself on audio or video. <\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Get on the phone with a friend, talk\u00a0and record it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Have someone interview you about your subject. <\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Teach a class or give a lecture and record it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All of these can be transcribed and later massaged into a book.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#2 Once\u00a0the information&#8217;s\u00a0out of your head,\u00a0organize it.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Look at other books for how they are organized and use them as a model. In my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.CreateAWOW.com\" target=\"_blank\">Create A WOW book program<\/a> I show my students how to organize their books using several possible formats. You just pick the one you like or create a hybrid of your own. Then follow my chapter structure formula, and rinse and repeat for each chapter. If you&#8217;re having trouble organizing your book, this is something I can help you work\u00a0through on a consulting basis.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#3 Work your outline and flesh it out into a book.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By following your outline, you have a guide for completing\u00a0your project. Set a goal for yourself. For example, perhaps you&#8217;ll work on one subject each day until you get the book done. If you really hate to write, you can give your transcripts to someone and have them ghost write your book for you. (I consider ghost writing books for people on a case by case basis. Never hurts to ask.)<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re short on material, this is a good time to get other people to contribute. Ask other people for quotes, stories or resources. In doing so, you automatically have others\u00a0who will be happy to promote your\u00a0book when it&#8217;s completed. <strong>When you&#8217;re short on content, think marketing.<\/strong> Think of popular individuals\u00a0who can contribute content and let their followers\u00a0know about your book.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#4 Edit It<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Go back through your work and edit what you can. Then, whether you consider yourself a good writer or not, it&#8217;s always smart to have someone else edit your work. Whether you hand off your manuscript to a group of friends and get a &#8220;group edit&#8221; or hire a professional editor, you need more eyes on your work. If you&#8217;re looking for a good editor, I have a couple\u00a0I use. Just contact me and I&#8217;ll\u00a0provide names.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#5 Get It\u00a0Into Book Form<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You can design your own book if you have a technical inclination or are a graphic artist. But if you&#8217;re going to delegate anywhere, I&#8217;d delegate here. Rather than obsess over how you&#8217;re going to get your book into print after it&#8217;s written, just find a good book designer who submits your work to CreateSpace and Kindle and be done with it. If you are a bit of a do-it-yourselfer, my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.marniemarcus.com\/kindlecourse.php\" target=\"_blank\">Simple 5 Step Kindle Creation and Publishing course<\/a> is a great place to start. If you&#8217;d rather delegate all or a portion, contact me; I&#8217;ll give you my personal book designer&#8217;s contact information.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#6 Market Your Book<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Book launches are a great way to build buzz about your book and get people buying. One of the main things I do with clients is help them come up with a compelling way to market their book and structure their book launches. If you&#8217;re interested, we could <a href=\"http:\/\/www.marniemarcus.com\/unplugged\/20min\" target=\"_blank\">chat for 20 minutes about your book<\/a>, I&#8217;ll\u00a0give you some ideas to get started.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most likely you know you&#8217;re not going to get rich on a book.
